Writing Up Qualitative Research

Writing Up Qualitative Research
by: Harry F. Wolcott


Editorial Review:

Writing Up Qualitative Research, Third Edition offers time-tested suggestions on every aspect of the process from beginning to end. In this new edition, author Harry Wolcott continues to focus on the "writing side" of qualitative research, while incorporating new features such as guidelines on how and where to use theory.

Key Features

  • Offers practical suggestions for preparing an article or book for publication
  • Uses lively examples from the author's more than 40 years of experience
  • Provides suggestions on how to proceed with the mechanics of preparing a manuscript
  • Includes pointers on how to improve or jump-start the writing process
  • Features a most robust and accessible pedagogy

This text is ideal as a supplementary text in any upper-level undergraduate or graduate seminar on the research process.
Praise for the Third Edition:
"Writing up Qualitative Research has CHIME - compassion, humor, intelligence, mindfulness of humanity, and empirical evidence. Wolcott's empathic compassion is a major strength. The content of every chapter shows that Wolcott has fel and grappled with all the same anxieties and fears of writers at every level."
-Sonja Peterson-Lewis, Temple University

"His style is good, down to earth, and easy to understand for both undergraduate and graduate."
-Joseph Wronka, Springfield College

"The Wolcott text is much more reader-friendly and writer-friendly. It offer remarkable support for the writing process, compared to traditional texts."
-Judy K. C. Bentley, SUNY at Cortland

"The conversational style makes the book inviting and accessible. It is comprehensive, addressing the various aspects of writing ranging from setting up to where to write to get published. It teaches and motivates with being didactic or arrogant."
-Pat Maslin-Ostrowski, Florida Atlantic University

Get something else:

I am writing a dissertation and this was not very helpful. It basically said get started, get going, keep going a nd told me all the reasons that I did not need to justify using qualitative research. It was a waste of money unless you needed a pep talk. Was of no use from a technical standpoint.

Got me through my dissertation...:

I found this book more helpful than any dissertation-writing manual, and will rely on it for future projects beyond the PhD. Wolcott's honest and funny writing style makes you feel like a friend, and his advice is truly useful. The book is a great motivator as well, particularly during those frustrating stages of writing/revising. I highly recommend this book to anyone sitting on a mound of qualitative data who needs a bit of companionship along the way.

Writing Up Qualitative Research:

This book has been very helpful in determining where to start and steps to make for completing a qualitative research project. It offers suggestions of "how to" and provides application tips that make a sometimes seemingly overwhelming project manageable.

Customer Review:
Kaplan's "Sharp Writing" is a practical overview of grammar and usage, but is quite basic. If you are looking for a book that will provide you with more "Style" advice than grammar, I would recommend Style: Toward Clarity and Grace (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing).

Customer Review:
The book is generally poorly written. It is extremely colloquial, and thus could be of use for teaching younger students. However, for an educated audience (college level), it is extremely weak and close to useless. I was assigned this book for an introductory writing course at my college and was... more info

I was mildly amused at first, but as the novel bogged down halfway through, I couldn't help but wonder if there was ever going to be an ending? What trivial and boring lives Austen satirized. Yes, this is satire, but it is not high satire. It's barely noticeable satire. I finally put the book aside,... more info

My daughter had to read this book over the summer for a grade in her Honors English class. I liked the fact that it was cheap, but on the other hand, what I paid for shipping I could have went ahead and purchased it out of the store. I wasn't to thrilled about that!

Customer Review:
Research is most definitely a craft and as with all research books, there is a great deal written about scientific research and medical research. Generic research guides do little to offer help to Musicological research. Yet this is a helpful resource tool if taken generically.
