Description

The Discovery of Grounded Theory: Strategies for Qualitative Research by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss is a foundational text in sociological research. This book addresses the crucial task of discovering theory from data, a process known as grounded theory, which is essential for understanding empirical situations and providing relevant predictions, explanations, and applications. The authors present a strategy for facilitating the discovery of grounded theory through systematic comparison of multiple groups, and also explore the generation of theory from qualitative and quantitative data. The book's aim is to improve social scientists' capacity for generating theory that is relevant to their research, making it a valuable resource for anyone studying social phenomena, particularly those using qualitative data. Suitable for sociologists and researchers in related fields, this book provides a comprehensive approach to grounded theory and its applications, offering insights into the credibility of this methodology.
