Representation and the Text

William G. Tierney is Professor and Director of the Center for Higher Education Policy Analysis at the University of Southern California. Yvonna S. Lincoln is Professor and Head of the Educational Administration Department at Texas A&M University.

"The mixture of theory, voice, ideology, and passion makes this a most enjoyable and fulfilling read. This book will be at the forefront of thought and debate about the use of narrative voice, public and private selves, and the obvious place these have in author's research endeavors." — Ken Kempner, Educational Leadership, University of Oregon
