Twelve international academics and researchers contribute 12 chapters to this text designed to assist researchers and research students based in western universities to prepare for fieldwork on developmental issues in the Third World. Coverage includes methodological aspects, such as research design, quantitative and qualitative techniques; preparation matters, such as funding, research permission, health preparations, packing, motivation, attitudes, behavior; aspects of the fieldwork itself, including ethical issues and working with marginalized, vulnerable, and privileged groups; and the post-fieldwork phase of a research project.
