Summary
Below are listed some of the key research projects which I have carried out and been involved in during my working life. Most have involved collaborations and partnerships; my work has particularly developed in partnership with Suzy Croft. These research projects have both informed and shaped the arguments and views I have offered in this book. Most are specific research projects, although some represent more general focuses in research work that I have carried out. I have also provided key references linked with these studies. Looking back on the projects I have undertaken what strikes me is how many of them have been empirical projects, developing new findings about their subject area, rather than relying on existing information, ideas and assumptions.
