Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) is a qualitative
research approach committed to the examination of how people make
sense of their major life experiences. This text provides a
detailed guide to conducting IPA research, presenting the
theoretical underpinnings of the approach, a comprehensive overview
of the stages of an IPA research project, and examples of
high-quality IPA studies. Extended worked examples from the
authors' own studies in health, psychological distress, and
identity illustrate the breadth and depth of IPA research, making
this book the definitive guide to IPA for students and researchers
alike. New to this edition: - A thoroughly updated chapter
dedicated to analysis - An exemplary mini-study - Improved and
updated terminology - A chapter discussing innovations in design,
data collection, and collaboration 'It is not often I can use
"accessible" and "phenomenology" in the same sentence, but reading
the new book, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis...certainly
provides me the occasion to do so. I can say this because these
authors provide an engaging and clear introduction to a relatively
new analytical approach' - The Weekly Qualitative Report
From his woodland bunker in Michigan, Bo 'Big Bruddah' Watts has
assembled a scratch army of gun-toting militiamen, and he's ready
to use it. Rumours are circulating that the liberal, female
President of the USA is going to fight climate change by banning
beef, snatching the great American hamburger from the mouths of
patriots. Big Bruddah missed the last militia uprising. That one,
sparked by a conspiracy theory about a deadly virus and stolen
cheese recipes, ended in failure when his now ex-wife, Miky Spike,
stopped the potentially bloody conflict at a Cracker Barrel
restaurant in Wisconsin. He is determined to stop the president,
with the help of eccentric octogenarian Wilbur Tuttle, who runs
Silver Eagle Security, the private military enterprise owned by the
hapless former governor of Michigan, Bill Hoeksma. The plan is to
launch a coup in Tampa, Florida by kidnapping the President's
daughter and then installing Hoeksma as a puppet President. With
the support of Silver Eagle's best men, Big Bruddah and Tuttle hope
to ignite the long-awaited insurrection militia members call the
"boogaloo." What could possibly go wrong? What readers are saying
about The Great American Cheese War: "A rollicking riot of insanity
and I mean that in the most wonderful sense! I laughed my way
through this story." "Highly recommended!! This book was a lot of
fun, I laughed out loud, and it's a clever satire book. It's well
written, engrossing and entertaining." "Enjoy your summer, read
this book!" "Satire at its finest. The whole book had me rolling on
floor laughing!"

Governor Bill Hoeksma of Michigan is a simple, gun-loving son of a
billionaire who idolises George W. Bush. When a mysterious illness
afflicts members of his inner circle, his conspiring advisors point
to a rumoured viral weapons attack - via monkeypox-carrying prairie
dogs - launched by the Wisconsin government. Governor Bill decides
the Michigan militia should lead the military response, chaos
ensues, and he falls unwittingly into a scheme of his powerful
father's making. That scheme begins with cheese research and a
Hollywood movie star. How it will end all depends on two unlikely
heroes: an aging lesbian state senator, and a high-school teacher
born and raised in the Michigan militia. When the conspiracy runs
out of road, and guns are drawn in a showdown outside a Cracker
Barrel, will anyone emerge victorious from the Great American
Cheese War? What readers are saying about The Great American Cheese
War: "A rollicking riot of insanity and I mean that in the most
