"This volume offers an in-depth look into how qualitative social science researchers approach their data analysis. It moves beyond the usual vague statement of "themes emerged from the data" to show readers how researchers actively and consciously arrive at their themes, revealing the complexity of making sense of thousands of pages of interview data, multiple data sources, and diverse types of data (observations, interviews, photos, diary entries).
