This new edition of Intercultural Interactions presents a fully updated set of training materials which have been developed to form the basis of a variety of cross-cultural orientation programmes. These materials are based on the assumption that there are commonalities, or similar personal experiences, when people live and work in cultures other than their own. More comprehensive in scope than its predecessor, the Second Edition also contains a practical new user's guide, and its expanded coverage draws readers in with more vivid scenarios and examples reflecting changing world events and social milieu.

With the move towards evidence-based practice and emphasis placed on multidisciplinary research teams, there is a growing use of qualitative research methods.

The book's entries are ordered alphabetically for quick and easy access to the information. Links are included in each entry so that the reader can follow a particular line of enquiry. Suggested further reading is included to encourage deeper exploration of a particular approach or method. It will provide a comprehensive range of the most commonly used terms and methods within qualitative research.
