  <abstract>"At the beginning of writing a thesis many questions arise, for example: How do I know that I have formulated a relevant research problem? Have I chosen the right empirical method? Are interviews or observations appropriate? How should I structure my text to get my point across in the best way? What exactly is a theory? How can the quality of my work be assessed? Crafting Your Thesis is a broad and accessible handbook in qualitative methods that gives you clear and concise answers to these questions - and many more. The book can be used both in introductory university courses, where you as a student encounter questions of method for perhaps the first time, right up to Master's thesis level, where it gives a quick overview of different available qualitative methods and highlight questions that must be dealt with when crafting the thesis"--</abstract>
