"As qualitative research methods have gained status, interest in
narrative analysis has also grown. This collection of essays
reflects varying definitions for processes of interpreting variety
of discourse as well as varying contexts of meaning. The editors
highlight the usefulness of narrative analysis as a way to reveal
relationships between individuals and societies. They also emphsize
the developmental qualitites of narrative analysis: in terms of
life journey, cultural tool over time, complexity, and skill
acquisition."
