This is the second edition of Kathy Charmaz's groundbreaking and bestselling text on grounded theory. It retains the accessible and engaging style of the first edition to present for readers a benchmark introduction to doing grounded theory from a constructivist perspective. Constructing Grounded Theory 2nd Edition retains the strengths of the first edition while updating it with a dazzling array of new examples of grounded theory practice from diverse disciplines and professions. This expanded second edition 1) addresses how to focus data collection and to think about it for theorizing, 2) adds a new chapter on interviewing that includes recent debates and specific guidelines for conducting interviews in grounded theory studies, 3) provides strategies for using grounded theory in social justice inquiry, 4) considers recent epistemological debates about the place of prior theory and the legacy of Anselm Strauss for grounded theory, and 5) includes a new chapter on relationships between symbolic interactionism and grounded theory as one theory-methods package that researchers can adopt. Charmaz's book is a must-have for any student or researcher serious about understanding and doing grounded theory research. Kathy Charmaz's new edition of her classic text on developing grounded theory is an invaluable resource for qualitative and mixed methods scholars. Her formulation of grounded theory analysis is remarkable for its eclectic synthesis of what have been contentious approaches and for its clear connections to the variety of qualitative data analysis methods. I have used Dr. Charmaz's work to teach both general induction and specifically grounded theory methods. The emphasis on research thinking and decision making, the explicit discussion of theories we start with and theories we build, and the extensive variety of examples in the second edition enrich our understanding of what we are doing when we do research. The book is an indispensable part of a qualitative research library. -- Judith Preissle, Professor Emeritus 20131129 This is a powerful, richly nuanced, evocative work. It is masterfully grounded in the grounded theory strategies and practices of established scholars. It represents a stunning and brilliantly innovative intervention. It provides ground zero - the starting place for the next generation of social science scholars. A major accomplishment. -- Norman K. Denzin, College of Communications Scholar and Professor of Sociology 20131205
