Offers a comprehensive and clear introduction to the complex field of vignette research. The authors welcome you in to the co-experiential lifeworld of the vignette researcher, taking the reader on a journey rich with theory, practical suggestions, and applications, raising serious questions about some established research conventions. I was fascinated, challenged and excited by its powerful possibilities. Highly recommended.
