This is a well-written, accessible and thought-provoking book that promotes the use of creative methods in educational research in a balanced way... I am very glad to have the book on my shelf and would definitely recommend it to students, but also to researchers wanting to reflect on their practice. International Journal of Research & Method in Education While giving clear and practical advice, with lots of case study examples, the book also speaks with a friendly authority that makes it feel both reassuring and inspiring.
