Reviews for Theoretical Scholarship and Applied Practice
This book provides a well-grounded and meticulously described account of a number of projects involving 'publics' and external stakeholders in the process of doing research. The editors address a gap in academic knowledge, providing rich and useful detail about the nature of, and practices involved in, collaborative interdisciplinary research.
