Whenever I review materials I do so with three eyes. One is as an educator of Ph.D. students who are just beginning their knowledge research methodologies. Another eye is towards the needs of the Ph.D. student in the midst of crafting and defending their dissertation proposal and finished product. Finally I view the book from my own educational needs or does this book provide me as an experienced grounded theorist with needed or new knowledge of my craft? From two of these three perspectives I view Dr. Barney Glaser’s new book Doing Quantitative Grounded Theory as potentially useful and from the third (my own learning) give the book a must own rating.
