Well written , accessible and covers all the essential requirements for PG qual analysis. The book is not solely dedicated to analysis, there are chapters on the research design and ethics (which are covered equally well in numerous other texts). Chapter on integrative procedures is very useful. Each chapter signpost key further reading thro' a section titled 'Readings I learnt from' - which I feel is an interesting way of personalising the section and may inspire learners to engage in further reading.
We advise this book to our student who are going to conduct qualitative research for their master thesis
Excellent book, but I couldn't fit it into my existing syllabus.
We will stop using this book next year.
Good standard Student friendly
A very good book on qualitative data analysis for beginners, the book is well written and easily accessible. The author provides examples of coding and guides the reader through the integrative phase of analysis.
This book covers the basic functions that is required to analyze data. Most just focus on the philosophical or process requirements, this text however goes to the technical requirements of what is done with data once you have it. How to break down, analyze and present data into meaningful components.
This text addresses analysis of qualitative research in a variety of ways which should be helpful for students. I especially like the sections regarding mixed method analysis and the 'think aloud' section as this is similar to a tutorial! I look forward to seeing how students respond to this text.
A well written book suitable for any student involved in a research project. A book that you can dip in and out of. Some excellent tips given throughout for analysing and coding data. Well recommended.

Analysis is often overlooked in reserach in adult and community education. This text provides a really useful guide
Very useful for our Media Honours students. Again the financial constraints of South African students limits them in buying all the books. So we buy for the Library rather than for individual students.
This is a good book which provides concise explanation of the analysis strategies for qualitative research. I put it down in the list of additional literature for the module.
A very useful text book that is extremely clear to follow and provides helpful examples to the reader. It is one of the best text books I have seen on Qualitative Research. Hennie Boeije's books gives step-by-step instructions on how to unravel the 'mysteries' of qualitative data analysis. I will not hesitate to recommend it to my students.
I gave this to some students working on M.Sc. and Ph.D. level research projects. For the M.Sc. level they found it was easy to find the material they were looking for. I would have like to have seen a more elaborated section (maybe some more examples) on creating conceptual models/theory building.
A useful introduction to the qualitative research process for undergraduate and postgraduate students who need an overview of this topic area. The use of learniong objectives at the beginning of each chapter is helpful and aids the reader in identifying learning needs.
An excellent additional resource for my students
The book gives a good outline about QL data analysis. Shorter than some clasical texts in the field yet comprehensive.
A well-drafted book. although not alltogether convincing. As this is about a very basic level of social science education, I would prefer something more profound and encompassing.
Although this book covers many of the relevant areas for qualitative data analysis and is very informative, there could be a few more practical examples for students in order to better illustrate the techniques under consideration.
