I think the section on coding (Chapter 4) is an excellent presentation and surpasses similar material in Saldaa's previous book. This book continues to be the best basic sourcebook available.", I definitely plan to adopt this edition when it becomes available. In recent years, this has been a text I encourage student to use as a reference. The new edition will be a required textbook for my Advanced Qualitative Research course., "The new material is well integrated, it still has the Miles and Huberman content, but the presentation strategy adds new material and "softens" the quantitative edge of the Second Edition. I think the section on coding (Chapter 4) is an excellent presentation and surpasses similar material in Saldaa's previous book. This book continues to be the best basic sourcebook available.", This book is a wonderful, valuable and truly important contribution to the field of qualitative research. Saldana has updated, innovated and altogether advanced the insights and wisdom of practice of Miles and Huberman in such a way as to amplify the value of their work while making it even more usable and inspiring to researchers concerned with engaging in rigorous, reflective, systematic and reliable empirical research. This book adds great value to the field of qualitative research and I will use it in all of my methods courses with great enthusiasm and appreciation. Thank you for your hard work, I am grateful!, Students really like the book. Additionally, my quantitative colleagues work well with this text when we undertake mixed methods..., "The new material is well integrated, it still has the Miles and Huberman content, but the presentation strategy adds new material and "softens" the quantitative edge of the Second Edition.

The new edition will be a required textbook for my Advanced Qualitative Research course., This book is an invaluable resource for qualitative researchers at all levels, from the greenest graduate student to the seasoned scholar. My copy is dog-eared, marked up, and tabbed to the point of clutter, but it remains at the side of my desk whenever I am working on research. I look forward to the next edition; I hope these comments are useful!

SynopsisMiles and Huberman's seminal text has helped thousands of graduate students and researchers find meaning from their qualitative data. New to this edition is the integration of qualitative analysis software, coverage of new approaches of inquiry, inclusion of mixed methods, and examples from a wider range of social science disciplines., Miles and Hubermans seminal text has helped thousands of graduate students and researchers find meaning from their qualitative data. New to this edition is the integration of qualitative analysis software, coverage of new approaches of inquiry, inclusion of mixed methods, and examples from a wider range of social science disciplines., The Third Edition of Miles & Hubermans classic research methods text is updated and streamlined by Johnny Saldaña, author of The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers . Several of the data display strategies from previous editions are now presented in re-envisioned and reorganized formats to enhance reader accessibility and comprehension. The Third Edition's presentation of the fundamentals of research design and data management is followed by five distinct methods of analysis: exploring, describing, ordering, explaining, and predicting. Miles and Hubermans original research studies are profiled and accompanied with new examples from Saldañas recent qualitative work. The books most celebrated chapter, "Drawing and Verifying Conclusions," is retained and revised, and the chapter on report writing has been greatly expanded, and is now called "Writing About Qualitative Research." Comprehensive and authoritative, Qualitative Data Analysis has been elegantly revised for a new generation of qualitative researchers., The Third Edition of Miles & Hubermans classic research methods text is updated and streamlined by Johnny Saldaña, author of The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers.
