The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Research Methods

The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Research Methods provides a rich resource for organizational researchers, locating the technical aspects of organizational research in the wider context of the relevant personal, epistemological, theoretical, historical, ethical, and political issues.

Buchanan & Bryman have gathered together many of the world's leading writers on theory, method and analysis in organizational research and have made this the most comprehensive and cutting-edge volume in this ever-growing field. The handbook aims to:

- Provide a comprehensive critical review of contemporary issues, debates, field practice, and trends across the domain of organizational research;

- Locate current thinking, debates, and methods in the history of organizational research;

- Identify trends, theories, and issues which have the potential to shape the underpinning epistemologies, theories and methodologies of future organizational research;

- Explore strategies for bridging the gap between researchers and those who are in a position to act on research findings to influence organizational practice

The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Research Methods provides an impressively comprehensive critical review of contemporary issues, debates and trends across the domain of organizational research. It will be an indispensible reference work for all organizational researchers.
