Review of Interviewing as Qualitative Research: A Guide for Researchers in Education and the Social Sciences

Reviews the book, Interviewing as Qualitative Research: A Guide for Researchers in Education and the Social Sciences by I. E. Seidman (see record 1991-97775-000). Although informed by and intended for doctoral students in education, Seidman's introduction to qualitative research is useful for students in any discipline interested in determining how people "understand and make meaning of their experience." Seidman presents "in-depth, phenomonologically based interviewing" as a relationship that must take into consideration the "power of the social and organizational context of people's experience."
