5 Stars A must have for all qualitative researchers
I found this book really useful in helping me to determine the best methods for my research design. I really liked the clear structure throughout this book which made it easy to read and very practical to use.
5 Stars Interviewing as Qualitative Research
This is being used in a graduate class of Qualitative Research Methods at the National University of Taiwan in Tainan, Taiwan with very good success. The success is in the form of interviews with high school students concerned with conflict resolution in an experiment, ‘Innovative Competition Using High Temperature Superconductor for Magnetic Levitation’.

5 Stars Seidman is the Grand Master of Interviewing as QR
I was fortunate to take Irv’s class at UMass. His book is the most comprehensive guide to interviewing, and I have used his method in my doctoral thesis and in multiple academic papers. Irv probably has exploitation issues with his method being used to collect consumer data, but the three-stage interview method is extremely effective in exploring consumption experiences.
