(CounsellingPsychology Review, 2 June 2012)"The many current research examples provide a useful andeasy-to-read description of what is possible in phenomenologicalresearch. This book is a wonderful addition to qualitativemethodology texts and I would recommend it as a standard text foranyone considering counselling/ psychotherapy research."
