- W627587360 abstract "This review offers you a blend of two perspectives on Marilyn Lichtman’s book Qualitative Research in Education: A User’s Guide published in 2006 by Sage Publications; that of a graduate student beginning PhD studies along with that of a dissertation supervisor, teacher, and editor. At times our voices converge and at other times we speak individually. Sally: I read this book for the purposes of writing a review and invited Karen to read it as an entree into doctoral research studies. Karen: I read this book from a beginner’s perspective.

Karen: Permission to be confused was exactly what I needed to dive in. Part 1 of the book focuses on traditions and influences in qualitative research.
