Qualitative Methods in Public Health: A Field Guide for Applied Research PDF

This book is right to the point- no major theoretical waxing. Great methods book and perfectly applicable for public health work.

By Erin C. Wilson

I bought this book as a rapid review of qualitative methods as part of my preparation for comprehensive exams for a DrPH course. As someone with a quantitative focus and minimal exposure to qualitative research methods I needed a rapid and practical review. It came highly recommended by one of the course lecturers. It seems a concise and practical review for my purposes.
