It focuses specifically on the experiences of people who have worked in difficult, tense, delicate and sometimes conflictual and dangerous settings. The tensions faced by researchers and, more importantly, how they manage to deal with them are often under-remarked. Unlike the bulk of published ethnographic work, the chapters in this book deal more explicitly with the various practical problems that researchers with varying degrees of experience face. Our aim in this book is to give a voice to researchers who have sometimes contended with unexpected issues and who sometimes have had to face them on their own. We explore incidents which may entail emotional conflict, embarrassment and shame, feelings of isolation, arguments with other members of a team, political pressures, and ideological confusions, to name but a few. Senior figures in research laboratories and elsewhere may provide intellectual direction and support but may not always recognise the personal and problematic nature of qualitative enquiry undertaken by relatively inexperienced researchers. The chapters examine feelings of isolation, the difficulty of ?taking sides?, the negotiation of personal, ethical, and political pressures in the field, and dealing with conflicting visions of what the research should be about. The book is a resource for those embarking on the challenges of working in unfamiliar or difficult settings and moreover should act as a reminder to academics who might have forgotten the practical issues that researchers can face and how they deal with them. 410 0$aHuman?Computer Interaction Series,$x2524-4477 606 $aComputers and civilization 606 $aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 606 $aHuman-computer interaction 606 $aSociology 606 $aEthnology 606 $aComputers and Society 606 $aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction 606 $aSociology 606 $aEthnography 615 0$aComputers and civilization. 615 0$aUser interfaces (Computer systems). 615 0$aHuman-computer interaction. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 14$aComputers and Society. 615 24$aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction. 615 24$aSociology. 615 24$aEthnography. 676 $a303.483 700 $aKrüger$b Max$0199151 701 $aDe Castro Leal$b Debora$01431777 701 $aRandall$b David$066894 701 $aTolmie$b Peter$01431778 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996558570103316 996 $aTorn Many Ways$93574659 997 $aUNISA
