New Book on Ethics and Visual Research Methods - Now Available!

A new book, edited by my colleagues Deborah Warr, Marilys Guillemin, Susan Cox, and myself, has been published by Palgrave Macmillan. The book, Ethics and Visual Research Methods: Theory, Methodology, and Practice, brings together case studies and reflections from researchers in diverse fields who have all grappled with ethical issues encountered when using visual research methods. The chapters describe a range of visual methods, including participant-generated photography and drawings, video observations, and analyses of online visual material. The authors present in-depth personal insights describing research conducted in sometimes difficult and sensitive settings, where visual research methods are used to overcome some of the limitations of text-based methods but also introduce new challenges. 

Further information about the book is available from the Palgrave Macmillan website. If your institution subscribes to Springer, the book is available to download from the SpringerLink database.
