Description
Qualitative Research in Sport Management is the first book of its kind to produce a unique and ground-breaking work which brings together
valuable research designs. In each design the text provides a concise guide to how each model can first be applied to sport management
issues and problems, second, strengthen the research design, and finally, enhance the research process.
In order to facilitate the concepts
explored in the book the expert authors have incorporated a high level of pedagogy throughout the material, including:
- Introduction
- Objectives
- Key concepts and terms
- Summaries
- Review and research questions
- International case studies
- "In conversation" vignettes
with leading academics in the field
An accompanying website also provides the lecturer with additional case study material which relates
to the cases within the text.
Qualitative Research in Sport Management is simply vital reading for any student undertaking a qualitative
research project and is imperative for success.
