This is a specialised title. It does not offer basic guidance however it is useful for students who are keen to delve deeper into the use of Nvivo
It was useful for me as a PhD student, but I felt it was too complex for undergraduates. We have also decided not to use NVIVO in the module now.
A well written book and an excellent resource
This is a very good resource for students and teaching
