"Explores the major research methodologies within the qualitative tradition, situating them within the phases of a research study. I suspect this will be really useful for future research. Hooray for textbooks that are actually worth the money!"

However, it's old enough that software-assisted qualitative data analysis isn't really part of the discussion. I just read and loved Creswell's newest book, Designing and Conducting Mixed Methods Research, which is much more practical for anyone doing research outside of a university setting and much more up-to-date."
