It aspires to provide the reader not with a set of prescriptive rules, but rather with a methodological awareness of the complexity and peculiarity of applying a case study, so that they may carefully evaluate the limits and potential of conducting this type of investigation.\n\nWhat is case study research in the sociological field really? How do we carry out a social inquiry of this type? How does it differ from other social research approaches? In answering these questions, this book leads the reader.
