520 |a Undertaking qualitative research on sensitive topics often raises a wide range of ethical problems. Based on empirical research conducted with health and social science researchers, this book documents experiences throughout the entire research process: from conceptualization, ethics approval, fieldwork, to analysis and publication. It presents readers with stories from the researcher's perspective and synthesizes these experiences into a conceptual framework that will assist researchers to undertake qualitative research. Each section discusses potential pitfalls, provides quotes and stories from actual researchers and reviews the relevant literature and theory, providing readers with a description of the process of conducting sensitive research from the perspective of those actually doing the research. 
520 8 |a Written for all levels of qualitative researchers from students through to experienced academics and other researchers, this is not a methodology textbook. Rather, it discusses the issues faced by researchers during the conduct of qualitative research on sensitive topics, such as death and dying, sexuality, homelessness, HIV/AIDS, cancer and other topics. It also provides practical recommendations for researchers and others involved in the practice and policy of research on sensitive topics, including Research Ethics Committees. It will also be a useful resource for transcribers, research funders, research supervisors, university risk-managers and anyone interested in undertaking a research project on a sensitive topic, and for those teaching qualitative methods across a broad range of disciplines (health, sociology, anthropology, psychology, education).
