Kelly Index About the EditorsReviews"The value of this slim volume is its laser focus on several theoretically sound and versatile contemporary research methods. -- ""Journal of Mixed Methods Research"" This book is illustrative of the ongoing implications of the immense steps committee psychologists talk in forging new approaches to psychology. It is as valuable for what it is implicit and what is made explicit. It serves to provide the discipline with further avenues to explore what a contextualize science really means. -- ""The Australian Community Psychologist"" This book is useful...in not just simply asserting that qualitative methods need to be added to the community psychologists' armamentarium. The text provides a sophisticated discussion of the many different ways this kind of effort proceeds. Anchored in community-based participatory research, the book provides a reasoned discussion of the benefits and limitations of qualitative/quantitative pluralism, and conservative ways in which the cost ratio can be maximized. -- ""The Community Psychologist""" The value of this slim volume is its laser focus on several theoretically sound and versatile contemporary research methods. * Journal of Mixed Methods Research * This book is illustrative of the ongoing implications of the immense steps committee psychologists talk in forging new approaches to psychology.
