Multiple realities. It is often here that I will draw on other research or on my understanding of other cases. Descriptive details, documents, quotations, triangulating data Some of the issues need further probing. This should be the place for the most confirming experiential data.
I will indicate not only what I have done to confirm the observations but what I have done to try to disconfirm them Nevertheless, having presented a body of relatively un-interpreted observations, I will summarize what I feel I understand about the case and how my generalizations about the case have changed conceptually or in level of confidence.
Model reader: The person for whom the researcher writes Case study reporting is not simply storytelling. Ann Mitchell Dec. Stake writes in a rather unusual and very personal style but this makes the text very readable. The author's obvious passion for research makes the text even more enjoyable and stimulating. The two sources on which I depended most heavily were Robert E. Wolcott's Writing Up Qualitative Research. I have heard others sing the praises of different works and I have referred to them, but favor the two mentioned.
Stake articulated in earlier journal articles and chapters in a form that is useful and readily accessible to both practitioners and students of educational research methods. His unusually personal presentation style and innovative format for sharing practical tips through authentic examples add to the main treasure of his new book: an incomparable sophistication about research epistemology and practice.
His vast experience in the field and in the classroom and his intimate knowledge of the literature intersect, providing the reader with an unusually comprehensive portrayal of a specialized field. The Art of Case Study Research is a significant contribution to research methodology literature and will undoubtedly assume quick popularity as a text. Robert E. Stake's book is also valuable as a genuine attempt to integrate, rather than pick arguments with, the best there is of contending approaches to qualitative inquiry.
I could see using it in combination with other texts or readings in an introductory course to qualitative research methods or in a research methods survey course. Because of its readable style and wellspring of examples and helpful suggestions, both graduate and undergraduate students will find the book useful. Researchers seeking to more fully understand the case study approach as perceived by one of the leaders in case study work will also pick up this book.
Researchers and policymakers in social service agencies may also be interested because case studies are increasingly part of evaluation strategies.
Unique in his approach and style, Robert E. Stake draws from naturalistic, holistic, ethnographic, phenomenological, and biographic methods to present a disciplined, qualitative exploration of case study methods.
In his exploration, Stake uses and annotates an actual case, at Harper School, to demonstrate to readers how to resolve some of the major issues of case study research; for example, how to select the case or cases that will maximize learning, how to generalize what is learned from one case to another, and how to interpret what is learned from a case.
Uniquely, this book legitimizes direct interpretation as a case research method. It covers such topics as the differences between quantitative and qualitative approaches to case study; data gathering, including document review; coding, sorting, and pattern analysis; the roles of the researcher, triangulation; and reporting a case study.
Also provided are end-of-chapter "workshops" that help students focus on new concepts. Written with the inspired and thought-provoking style of a master storyteller, The Art of Case Study Research helps readers chart their way through the labyrinth of case study research.

I have used a previous edition extensively for my own research. Yin is an essential for all case study researchers. I am delighted to have the new edition. It is a classic. Written in a way that makes interpretation, understanding and application easier. Stake provides a useful step by step guide to case study methods used in qualitative inquiry.
The use of workshop scenarios helps cement its application in practice.
