Riassunto

This 42 chapter volume represents the state of the art in visual research. It provides an introduction to the field for a variety of visual researchers: scholars and graduate students in art, sociology, anthropology, communication, education, cultural studies, women's studies, ethnic studies, global studies and related social science and humanities disciplines.

The SAGE Handbook of Visual Research Methods encompasses the breadth and depth of the field, and points the way to future research possibilities. It illustrates "cutting edge" as well as long-standing and recognized practices. This text is not only "about" research, it is also an example of the way that the visual can be incorporated in data collection and the presentation of research findings. Contributors to the book are from diverse backgrounds and include both established names in the field and rising stars. Chapters describe a methodology or analytical framework, its strengths and limitations, possible fields of application and practical guidelines on how to apply the method or technique.

The Sage Handbook of Visual Research Methods is organized into seven main sections:

I) Framing the Field of Visual Research

II) Producing Visual Data and Insight

III) Participatory and Subject-Centered Approaches

IV) Analytical Frameworks and Approaches

V) Vizualization Technologies and Practices

VI) Moving Beyond the Visual

VII) Options and Issues for Using and Presenting Visual Research

Recensione

It is meaty!...This book it better suited to those with a good level of experience in visual research methods who want to explore their genre further and delve deeper into the state of play and the roots of visual research methods.

SRA Reviews

The development of interdisciplinary research, innovations in technology and developments in our understandings of the potential of the visual in research make this text a timely contribution to methodological literature... This handbook covers a broad range of traditional and more cutting edge issues all of which seem necessary if research methods are to keep pace with the developments in contemporary society... In bringing together such an impressive range of authors and interdisciplinary issues, it offers a comprehensive handbook for anyone engaging with visual methods.

Psychology of Women's Section Review

A heavy book, 754 pages: the size alone makes the Sage handbook of visual research methods, edited by Eric Margolis (University of Arizona) and Luc Pauwels (University of Antwerp), a special experience. The preface therefore promises not doctrine, but a panorama of a flourishing discipline, offering an unprecedented, almost magical freedom. The details are the true wealth of this book. They form a kaleidoscopic tour of what visual languages ??can do: approaches, specialties and hobbies. [...] This standard work on visual social research is a feast of recognition.

This really is a remarkable book - the more I learn about how images work on us and how we work on images the more fascinating I find this stuff. (Trevor)
