Forensic Spoorology: Seeing and Understanding Human Behavior Through Observation, Classification and Interpretation of Spoor Evidence
ISBN: 9781533101846 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Humans have used traditional tracking skills to follow a quarry (human or animal) since the beginning of existence. Visual Tracking, at its very basic level is the natural predatory hunting instinct of man. Even with this history, the sophistication of spoor (track, trackway) observation, classification, and interpretation has only recently within the last thirty years addressed the why of scientific inquiry as to human behavior and its influences on spoor evidence? Tracking necessity has decreased perceptually with the complexities of human movement patterns during the period of...

Today there are major Departments at the University of Melbourne, the University of New South Wales and the...

Qualitative Research: A Reader in Philosophy, Core Concepts, and Practice
ISBN: 9781433104732 / Angielski / Twarda / 521 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We conceived of this book with the idea that critical explorations into the key philosophical issues in qualitative research could throw light on distortions, power relations, hidden assumptions and possibilities within the field, and could ultimately provide the groundwork for needed change and new directions. We wanted to do this with rigor, getting underneath the contemporary divisions in qualitative research, first building up philosophy and core concepts and then returning to specific practices in qualitative research. The book, in a way, then, is a statement of hope.
