Miles and Huberman´s seminal text has helped thousands of graduate students and researchers find meaning from their qualitative data. New to this edition is the integration of qualitative analysis software, coverage of new approaches of inquiry, inclusion of mixed methods, and examples from a wider range of social science disciplines.

The Third Edition of Miles & Huberman´s classic research methods text is updated and streamlined by Johnny Salda¤a, author of The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers. Several of the data display strategies from previous editions are now presented in re-envisioned and reorganized formats to enhance reader accessibility and comprehension. The Third Edition´s presentation of the fundamentals of research design and data management is followed by five distinct methods of analysis: exploring, describing, ordering, explaining, and predicting. Miles and Huberman´s original research studies are profiled and accompanied with new examples from Salda¤a´s recent qualitative work. The book´s most celebrated chapter, "Drawing and Verifying Conclusions," is retained and revised, and the chapter on report writing has been greatly expanded, and is now called "Writing About Qualitative Research." Comprehensive and authoritative, Qualitative Data Analysis has been elegantly revised for a new generation of qualitative researchers.

"This book is a wonderful, valuable and truly important contribution to the field of qualitative research. Saldana has updated, innovated and altogether advanced the insights and wisdom of practice of Miles and Huberman in such a way as to amplify the value of their work while making it even more usable and inspiring to researchers concerned with engaging in rigorous, reflective, systematic and reliable empirical research. This book adds great value to the field of qualitative research and I will use it in all of my methods courses with great enthusiasm and appreciation. Thank you for your hard work, I am grateful!"
