*DIEGESIS*
Doing Narrative Research is a wonderful introduction for anyone not
familiar with the current interests of a broad range of social
scientists and fieldworkers or the methodological and theoretical
foundations at the heart of those interests. To undertake seriously
the kinds of theoretical introspection urged here would, I am sure,
expand the horizons of oral history analysis and enrich our
understanding of what it is we do.
