Book Synopsis
Ethnography is a research based method on observing people in their natural environment rather than in a formal research setting. Because people and culture are so incredibly complex, ethnography offers a way to make sense of this complexity. It goes beyond a person''s preconceptions by immersion into the world of others. Some cultural anthropologists consider ethnography the essence of the discipline. This book provides suggestions on how the analytical process and findings of ethnography and other forms of social science research may be applied. It also describes conceptual and methodological challenges related to qualitative research in general, and ethnography in particular. Ethnographic research that seeks to create understanding of abused children and their well-being is also included in this book.
