This short book asks us to hold up the mirror. How do we act-- whether alone in front of our computers, when working with others, or when sharing findings? Being trustworthy is important, not only for the credibility of our own research, but for the field as a whole. In a fact-challenged world, we need to show that empirical research has a unique value. If we want professionals, practitioners, and the general public to value our contributions, we need to exemplify high standards in our practices for conducting research and writing about it.

As Methodspace readers know, Salmons frequently interviews authors and researchers. This time Aly Owen, the Sage editor who invited her to write this book, interviewed Janet. Take a look!
