This is a book of conversations with researchers working across
Europe, the USA and Africa. It aims to illuminate the lived reality
of educational research on a wide variety of topics, including
family life in rural South Africa, support for self-harming
students in the UK, character development in the USA and Korea,
educational leadership in the UK and China, philosophical analysis
of education policy, and much more. The book is for and about
researchers and is built around a set of conversations with the
author - a fellow researcher. Researchers work at the frontiers of
our knowledge and understanding of the world, and frontiers can be
dangerous places. How are the researchers' personal qualities -
virtues such as courage, honesty and kindness - tested and
exemplified in their work? The conversations presented here explore
the experience of research and ask what qualities are needed, or
wished for, in order to successfully face its challenges. There are
many books that include lists of what to do and what not to do when
carrying out research. Here, in contrast, we find out what really
happens and why - and what it takes to keep going.
