This is a book about research that takes the challenge of the internet seriously, that rises above disciplinary difference and points to new directions for social researchRob WalkerUniversity of East Anglia A stunning collection of cutting-edge essays which brings together the leading scholars in visual research. Clearly structured, and written in an engaging and accessible style throughout, this invigorating work will be the ′must have′ text for teachers and students of `the visual′ across the arts, humanities and social sciencesElaine CampbellReader in Criminology, Newcastle University Sarah Pink′s edited collection brings together a range of experienced researchers to share and exemplify their work with visual data in social research... The strength of the collection lies in the consistent combining of introductory material with evidence from authors′ own research and reflexive critique of political and ethical issues arising from the work... Recommended reading for doctoral students and teacher-researchers who either intend to elicit visual data or just want to know why they won′t.Julian McDougallMedia Education Research Journal Pink has put together a volume of essays on visual methodology with the task of "understanding and engaging not only with the newest and latest theoretical developments in our fields, but also with the ways these are co-implicated with technological developments and media practices" (Pink, 2012, p. 3)... The strength of these essays is the rigor with which they engage the concept of space and place, giving them enough detail to be useful not only for theory but also practice - or, put another way, to be useful in meaningfully breaking down theory, practice, and how they need to intersect for strong research.Sara MartelThe Communication Review
