ISBN: 9781409429555 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Presenting the latest empirical case studies from Canada, The USA and Australia, this volume...

ISBN: 9781604978285 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Why a book on a research study using grounded theory, a methodology that is currently celebrating its 50th anniversary?

This book represents the first book-length cohesive narrative on how this method was rediscovered by a researcher over the course of a new series of studies, redeveloped in the context of a topic previously undisturbed, applied, poked around, and...
