Description

Image-based Research: A Sourcebook for Qualitative Researchers by Jon Prosser provides an in-depth exploration of the role of images in sociological research. This comprehensive sourcebook brings together contributions from leading researchers to examine the use of visual methods in ethnographic fieldwork, documentary photography, and photojournalism. The book covers a range of topics, including the status of image-based research, the application of images in child abuse investigations, and the interpretation of family photography as pictorial communication. It also considers the role of photographs within the sociological research process and the importance of visual competence in ethnographic fieldwork practice. With its diverse range of perspectives and approaches, Image-based Research is an essential resource for qualitative researchers seeking to incorporate images into their work or those already using visual methods in their research.
