<p>This is an outstanding book that provides a much-needed series of critical reflections on qualitative research at a time when critical civic discourses are narrowing and what counts as scholarship is increasingly under attack. It asks vital questions about the qualitative work we do, the way in which we do it, and the conditions under which that work exists. Embracing the cry for social justice, the book is also an important call for action. <em>Qualitative Inquiry at a Crossroads</em> is a gem that deserves to be read widely.</p><p><strong>Brett Smith, University of Birmingham, UK</strong></p><p>Qualitative Inquiry again comes at a new crossroad.
