It provides critical insights into research with elites whose power and capital account for the social conditions of marginalized people. The perspectives and experiences provided are crucial to our work for achieving equity and social change through activist research.' Carl E.

This readable collection contains a range of lively empirical research essays which employ varied methodologies, and it offers significant food-for-thought and guidance to others who may be considering studying up... Overall this book should makes important if not essential reading for researchers undertaking such projects... a copy would be a excellent addition to any academic library...'
