The description of the steps is done at a general level so that they can be applied in a wide range of particular circumstances. The process comes to life through plentiful examples of actual applications of the steps. Each chapter includes: examples from the authors' experience and from published research; tasks that encourage readers to relate the steps to their own experience; and case studies and suggestions for further reading that put readers in touch with others' experience. --From publisher's description ER -
