In recent years, the development of narrative analysis has given life to the study of the narrative as a form of information for social research. This volume, replete with examples and transcriptions from previous narrative studies, is a useful introduction to this growing body of literature. The author provides a detailed primer on the use of narrative analysis, its theoretical underpinnings and world view, and the methods it uses.

Offers an overview of qualitative research based on interpreting stories. Designed to improve research practice, this title provides detailed discussions of four analytic methods: thematic analysis, structural analysis, dialogic/performance analysis, and visual narrative analysis. It also presents arguments about validation in case-based research.
