Themes and Perspectives
′This is a much needed, important and thorough book on doing
research with (rather than to) children. Such research requires
very careful consideration, thinking and planning - all of which
will be helped directly by this book. The authors bring together
different professional perspectives, and offer very practical help
and guidance, with clear examples. Built upon evidence, theory and
most importantly, direct experience, this updated book will be of
value to anyone thinking about research with children, and
particularly those carrying out such research projects for the
first time′ -
Irvine S. Gersch
Professor in Educational and Child Psychology, University of East
London
′The authors are well qualified to set out the political and
ethical issues regarding research with children and young people,
arguing that it is a process done ′with′ and not
done ′to′ them. This book is value for money, being
useful for educational research up to Level 7 (Master’s Degree)
across all educational sectors, early years to Further and Higher
Education′
