Förlagets beskrivning
This book captures diverse perspectives form different disciplines. It will definitely help researchers understand social reality and the complexities encountered when undertaking a research endeavor on women in development." --Indian Journal of Gender Studies Concerned with improving the quality and quantity of policy-relevant data on women, this work addresses the need to train researchers to undertake applied, problem-centered, interdisciplinary research. The papers in Capturing Complexity promote an integrated approach to development research, arguing that concrete development problems recognize no disciplinary boundaries. Exploration of issues such as women's fertility choices, their productivity in agriculture, and their trade-offs in combining child care and work outside the household illustrate the importance of considering a multitude of factors in developing research designs--as well as the diversity of the audience for whom findings will be analyzed and presented. This unconventional yet balanced examination of women's studies research methods has much to offer readers involved in women's studies, development studies, sociology, research methodology, policy and planning, family studies, and agricultural economics. "The seven sections, each highlighting a different perspective, add up to a very useful and readable volume. This is a good addition to the corpus of studies pertaining to women's issues." --Sunday Herald "Capturing Complexity is a major step in improving the quality and quantity of data on women....All the chapters address these issues concerning women....This is a book that will interest students of all social science disciplines and development practitioners." --The Hindustan Time
