It is accessible and coherent and the many interesting examples make the processes of data collection and analysis very clear. The consistent format makes it very user friendly and I will use it to inform my own research as well as with my students., Its main premise is that, to really get under the skin of a research issue, the research needs to look much deeper into the psycho-biography of research participants.
