Undercover research is an emotive and controversial field often equated with deception and transgression. Using classic examples and contemporary case studies this book challenges covert research’s dispersed place within the social sciences and rehabilitates its reputation as a powerful research method. Drawing in part on his own undercover research into the night-time economy of bouncers, the author explores the roots and evolution of covert research; his deft treatment of the fear and fascination within furtive fieldwork is grounded in the practicality of the methods and tools needed to conduct quality research in the field. Packed with learning-by-example tips, this book shows that with critical imagination and proper ethical foundations, covert research could be a great addition to your methodological toolkit.

This book examines the social entrepreneurship strategies of nonprofit organizations (NPOs), with a focus on the Caribbean social sector. In addressing the conceptual ambiguities from an academic and experiential perspective, it aims to provide a much-needed reflection on social entrepreneurship (SE), including in developing contexts. Through a comparative analysis of the experiences of NPOs from the Caribbean, the authors demonstrate the applicability of SE for NPO sustainability and as an opportunity for social sector performance improvement. Blending both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, this work is a useful base for researchers wanting to advance the mission of theory and methodological development toward maturing the field of social entrepreneurship.

Unleash Financial Mastery in 2024 is your trusty map and compass, guiding you through the twists and turns of the money world. This isn't your grandpa's finance book. We're talking about building a future where everyone has a seat at the financial table, where investments heal the planet instead of harming it. We'll dive headfirst into the psychology of money – because let's face it, our brains can be our own worst enemy when it comes to cash. Ever heard of FinTech? It's not just a buzzword, it's a revolution. This book reveals how technology is shaking up the financial world and putting power back in your hands. But knowledge is power, right? That's why we're arming you with the financial know-how to make smart choices, dodge those debt traps, and build a future you're excited about. Think finance is just for suits on Wall Street? Think again. We're pulling back the curtain on how businesses make their money magic happen, how markets dance to the tune of supply and demand, and how the rules of the game keep things (mostly) fair. We'll even journey into the world of microloans, where small sums of money spark big changes in communities that need it most. But this isn't just about theory – it's about YOU. We'll map out a personalized path to financial success, whether you're dreaming of early retirement, starting a business, or just making ends meet without the stress sweats.
