Notă biografică

My current interests and publications lie mainly two areas: firstly in the study of research methodology and methods; and secondly in the area of practice and policy in post-graduate education, particularly at doctoral level. In this second area, I am currently looking at the impact of the professional doctorate on people¿s lives and professional practice. I am also writing in the area of educational publishing and how this has evolved, building on some of my earlier publications in this area.
