Reviews

Addressing all the major methods and tools used in literacy inquiry, the editors have assembled seasoned researchers to present diverse ways of thinking about the learner's language, neurology, social context, cognitive expertise, and more. The second edition invites investigators to design creative synergies among the most current research approaches. Every aspiring researcher should be acquainted with the paradigms portrayed in this elegant volume. - John T. Guthrie, Jean Mullan Professor of Literacy Emeritus, University of Maryland, USA A 'must-read' for doctoral students. The basic premise is that diverse methodologies, when conducted according to standards of quality, have value - and collectively yield greater insights than any one methodology alone. The book provides a broad view of the 'lay of the land' in literacy research and emphasizes the importance of matching methodology to the kinds of research questions being asked. The addition of five new methodologies makes this second edition even more useful for both consumers and producers of research. The exemplar studies in each chapter provide students an invaluable opportunity for critical analysis. - Marcia Invernizzi, Henderson Professor of Reading Education, Curry School of Education, University of Virginia, USA
