Anderson and Freebody offer a series of comprehensive, systematic and useful ways of undertaking partnership research in educational settings. The book is thoughtfully researched, grounded in theory, methodologically sound and provides diverse examples of engaging in research with educational partners. The simple and complex questions are addressed and most importantly the thread of why education matters resonates throughout the book.

The book is highly recommended for researchers and research groups as a valuable text for practical advice. Important questions regarding processes are addressed. This is a significant contribution to de-mystifying partnership research in education.
