Textbooks and journal articles on research methods are rarely of
help regarding what to do when your research project goes off
track. This book addresses this important, and usually hidden,
aspect of research by providing students and researchers with
insider insights, advice and lessons about the difficulties in the
research process. Written by experienced researchers, PhD
supervisors and examiners, it should prepare the reader for all
that can go wrong when researching a PhD or any large research
project. The starting point of each chapter is the acceptance that
research projects do not always go smoothly. Researchers must find
ways to jump through a myriad of invisible hoops and over a
plethora of hurdles of unknown heights to guide their research,
from conceptualisation of worthwhile projects to the completion and
dissemination to a range of different audiences. The book is
divided into four sections: ?getting started?, ?getting data?,
?getting it together?, and ?getting finished?. Each section
comprises chapters followed by short vignettes ? all of which offer
insights into researchers facing real-world problems or not quite
getting things right in the first instance. This ground breaking
book will give hope to the early-career researcher, the PhD or
Masters student, and provide experienced academics with
reinvigoration and new perspectives on the research process.
