This 42 chapter volume represents the state of the art in visual research. It provides an introduction to the field for a variety of visual researchers: scholars and graduate students in art, sociology, anthropology, communication, education, cultural studies, women's studies, ethnic studies, global studies and related social science and humanities disciplines.

The SAGE Handbook of Visual Research Methods encompasses the breadth and depth of the field, and points the way to future research possibilities. It illustrates “cutting edge” as well as long-standing and recognized practices. This text is not only “about” research, it is also an example of the way that the visual can be incorporated in data collection and the presentation of research findings. Contributors to the book are from diverse backgrounds and include both established names in the field and rising stars. Chapters describe a methodology or analytical framework, its strengths and limitations, possible fields of application and practical guidelines on how to apply the method or technique.

The Sage Handbook of Visual Research Methods is organized into seven main sections:

Framing the Field of Visual Research; Producing Visual Data and Insight; Participatory and Subject-Centered Approaches; Analytical Frameworks and Approaches; Vizualization Technologies and Practices; Moving Beyond the Visual; Options and Issues for Using and Presenting Visual Research
