Its strength is that it challenges researchers to consider research from the participant point of view and develop a personal moral code regarding research."" -- Marilyn Bruin This is a path-breaking, well-crafted text that charts a culturally responsive path for doing qualitative research with vulnerable populations. -- Norman K. Denzin
