Doing Qualitative Research in a Digital World
While some qualitative methods texts touch upon online communities as a potential data source, show how to conduct interviews and focus groups online, or select recording devices and analysis software, no book to date has guided readers in the creation of a comprehensive digital workflow for their research.By working through each chapter in this book, readers will be able to generate a unique digital workflow for designing and implementing their research.The book provides a deep exploration of the relationship between theories of technology, substantive theories, and methodological theory, and shows how together these inform the development of a quality research design.The authors include vignettes—narratives written by qualitative researchers describing cutting-edge use of digital tools and spaces—and also give examples of published studies, which together provide practical illustration of the content.Woven throughout is explicit attention to ethical challenges that are likely to be faced by researchers when adopting digital tools.The book invites readers to engage in a critical appraisal of the role of technology in qualitative research through reflection, conversation, and engagement with the larger community of researchers.

Can education save the world?
Education has the power to transform individuals and societies by providing knowledge, critical thinking skills, and the ability to understand and address complex issues. It can empower people to make informed decisions, promote equality, and drive positive change. However, education alone cannot save the world. It must be accompanied by action, policies, and resources to address systemic issues such as poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation. Education can be a powerful tool in the fight for a better world, but it must be supported by comprehensive efforts across all sectors of society.

Men Amidst the Madness : British Technology Development in World War II
Individually and collectively, the Fellows of the Royal Society were involved in many wartime activities.For example, prior to the outbreak of World War Two Her Majesty's Government decided to establish a Central Register of persons with 'professional, scientific, technical or higher administrative qualifications', for use in time of War, and entrusted this work to the Ministry of Labour.The Secretaries of the Royal Society discussed the project with officials from that Ministry, and at the beginning of 1939, started to compile the part of the Central Register which dealt with scientific research.Some Fellows such as Sir Winston Churchill FRS, Albert Einstein ForMemRS, Alan Turing FRS, Sir Barnes Wallis FRS and Jan Christian Smuts FRS were either in the public eye during World War Two, or were the subject of films and documentaries soon afterwards.Equally there are individuals who have escaped the limelight.For example, Sir Harry Work Melville FRS was Scientific Adviser to the Chief Superintendent of Chemical Defence, Ministry of Supply (1940-1943) based mainly at Porton Down and Superintendent of the Radar Research Station at Malvern (1943-1945).Sir (Thomas) Angus Lyall Paton FRS organised staff for the supervision of a number of the reinforced concrete caissons and Phoenix units that formed part of Mulberry Harbours for the invasion of France, which incidentally were designed by Sir Bruce White.Of course Sir Frank Whittle OM CBE CB FRS also came to the public's attention for his war work on the jet engine. Interestingly, William Michael Herbert Greaves FRS was appointed Astronomer Royal for Scotland, as well as Professor of Astronomy at Edinburgh University and was in charge of the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh.He helped to set up an independent time service there, in case the regular Greenwich time service should be completely disrupted.This service was run by Greaves with the help of only a very small staff.These, and many other stories, provide a fascinating and detailed picture of the men frequently labelled 'boffins', and the work they did during World War Two.
