Description

Discovering new theories

This book proposes an original research
approach, a mixed typological research
design, which is in the legacy of classic
Grounded Theory. This approach allows
researchers to accomplish productive
academic empirical research by developing
and elaborating groundbreaking new
theories. Such an approach implies the
utilization of mixed qualitative and
quantitative data, in order to allow
researchers to develop theories of greater
scope and reach.

The approach proposed in this book may
be profitably applied by both novice and
experienced researchers in management
and all social sciences as well as in any
science that uses empirical data, whose
sources are human beings, for instance
medicine or nursing.
