The first edition of this classic text introduced researchers and students to a broad range of approaches that are grounded philosophically and are relevant to real contexts. This new edition reflects developments in social research and changes in the global environment. The authors broaden their conception of mindfulness, and show how mindful inquirers can maximize positive outcomes for participants, organizations, communities, and themselves. The first five chapters describe the application of mindful inquiry, and the following nine introduce cultures of inquiry and research traditions, theories, methods, and techniques. Chapters contain activities that provide immediate engagement with learning, suggested readings, and lists of skills for researchers.
