This fresh, confident second edition expands its focus on the theoretical and practical aspects of doing qualitative research in light of new ethical dilemmas facing researchers today.
In a climate of significant social and technological change, researchers must respond to increased ethical regulation and scrutiny of research. New sources, types of data and modes of accessing participants are all challenging and reconfiguring traditional ideas of the research relationship.
This engaging textbook explores key ethical dilemmas – including research boundaries, informed consent, participation, rapport and analysis – within the context of a rapidly changing research environment. The book effectively covers the ethical issues related to the data collection process, helping readers to address the ethical considerations relevant to their research.
This fully updated new edition:
– Maps the changing and increasingly technology-reliant aspects of research relationships and practices
– Provides researchers with guidance through practical examples, enabling those engaged in qualitative research to question and navigate in ethical ways
This book is essential reading for all those engaged in qualitative research across the social sciences.

As an academic manager I am committed to enhance academic practice for Associate Lecturers. A core component of my current role is to provide staff development opportunities to extend teaching and learning scholarship . I also support the delivery of health and social care courses and evidence the teaching and learning needs that arise from practice focussed and practice based courses. I currently chair K221: ′Perspectives on Complementary and Alternative Medicine′, a role that reflects my long term research interest in health and wellbeing beyond formal understandings and health care practices. I have several publication in research methodology and in 2011 a second edition of ′Ethics in Qualitative Research.′ Mauthner, Birch, Miller and Jessop (2002) is due.
I have developed teaching and learning across many health and social care areas and my discipline areas are underpined primairly with a sociological apporach.

Here I completed substantial lead author and editing roles that progress service user involvement, professional practice and raise the OU profile with other agencies and professional services.
