Recenzii
'Nigel
Kettley
has
written
a
courageous,
scholarly
and
easy
to
read
wake
up
call
for
publicly-funded
education
research.
If
the
argument
in
this
book
were
widely
accepted,
and
it
should
be,
it
would
lead
to
a
revolutionary
and
highly
ethical
improvement
in
the
use
of
evidence
for
explanations.'

Gorard,

'Kettley has written a provocative and challenging tour de force about theory building in education research. An essential resource for teachers of research methods and new researchers alike, this book also invites established researchers to interrogate the foundations of their practice as an important contribution to the development of an often contested field of enquiry.' Zane Ma Rhea, Senior Lecturer, Monash University, Australia
If like me, you sometimes wonder whether many of our colleagues actually realise that research involves finding things out, and that we have an ethical responsibility to do that as well as we can, then you will find this book reassuring... This is a further wake-up call for publicly funded education research, and I hope many people will read it, and use it in their methods development activities.
