Organized around three thematic issues: methodology, epistemological reflection, and theoretical and conceptual exploration. Here, each of these guiding themes is developed to greater or lesser degree in each chapter providing a navigational thread throughout the book.
Visual Research Methods: Image, Society, and Representation addresses the growing question in social research of how to critically incorporate visual data and visual methodologies in ways that expand and enhance the researcher's repertoire for understanding and teaching about the social world. Editor Gregory C. Stanczak crisscrosses disciplines in ways that highlight the multiple manifestations of this newer interdisciplinary trend. Beyond methodological interests, the rich diversity of subject matter provides this volume's pedagogical punch.
