From the vantage point of forty years in social research and the study of families, the author of this book offers an invaluable account of how research is conducted and `matters' at particular times. The book has two main themes that are interwoven throughout the text. A central theme is how social research matters in relation to historical context. A second theme focuses on the practice of social research; research is a craft that is learned with and from others as well as through reading methodological texts and training.
