The Spirit of Qualitative Research Lecture Nine: Neeltje Jans

There are a great number of how-to books in qualitative research, but very few why-to books. This lecture is the ninth lecture in an eleven lecture series that gets at the heart and spirit of why we do qualitative research. Each lecture stands alone, but the whole series gives the reader a fresh and strong new look at the ideas behind both the past and the future of qualitative research. In this lecture we look at action research and reflection as a necessary pair, traversing the flood controls of the southern Netherlands to the Abbey of Gesthemani.
