About the Book

This book explores the curved trajectory of social science research by placing the researcher and her dilemmas at its centre. It is written from the perspective of the researcher, what she experiences during various stages of research, the questions, doubts, and dilemmas that she encounters. It engages with social science itself, then not in terms of abstract definitions, theories, concepts, methods and principles, but rather as these come to be used in the process of research. It engages with what happens when we use the methods and techniques that we have learned in classrooms in various field situations. The goal in presenting this picture of research is to reach out to other researchers to share our journeys with them, and to present descriptions of research that resonate with our on-ground experiences.
