With this book Malcolm Williams strikes the exact balance.' - Ray Pawson, Emeritus Professor, University of Leeds This book is an ideal introduction for any student or social researcher hoping to better understand the philosophical issues that inform social research. Williams is the perfect guide providing short focused introductions to key concepts alongside a persuasive and engaging overview of how we interpret and conduct research. The book covers everything from core research methods, to ethical concerns and an exploration of the metaphysics of social life, with each entry providing: . Clear definitions . Engaging real world examples . Up-do-date suggestions for further reading . Informative cross-referencing . Lists of key thinkers. Relevant and authoritative, this book is an indispensable introduction to the philosophy of social research.
