Experience Research Social Change

From the introduction to the conclusion, this book is a jewel. In clear, crisp, and concise writing, the authors have managed to offer the complexities and, often, the contradictions of producing knowledge from a position of power. The authors address these complexities by outlining a collaborative process designed to collapse boundaries and reduce inequalities. A must-read for everyone interested in research offering possibilities for social change. -- Blye Frank, University of British Columbia This is a comprehensive and highly readable text for research students. It explains complex concepts in a straightforward manner, and includes illustrations that demonstrate how ideas have been put into practice in real life research. I would not hesitate in recommending this text to my students. The strong feminist approach, as well as the emphasis on Indigenous research, is to be welcomed. -- Angie Hart, University of Brighton ...essential reading for researchers, professors, graduate students, and community groups who want to undertake research aimed at social change. -- Guylaine Demers, Laval University Superb! A must-read... -- Colleen Dell, Addiction Research Chair, University of Saskatchewan
