Although McIntyre′s book is brief, it does cover many of the fundamentals of Participatory Action Research. It complements other literature such as Kindon et al (2007) and Cammarota and Fine (2008) and offers an accessible introduction to the research approach.

McIntyre locates much of her theory in the lived experiences of those she has researched alongside in Northern Ireland and elsewhere, giving the book an ′authentic′ dimension.

I will be recommending this book to my undergraduate students as recommended reading for their module ′Enquiring about Education′. -- Mr Jonathan Vincent * drupal *
