Description

Stories of Open: Opening Peer Review through Narrative Inquiry examines the methods and processes of peer review, as well as the stories of those who have been through it.

Eleven chapters are divided into three parts:Part 1: Orientation.

This section offers a conceptual frame for the book, providing details about narrative inquiry as a methodology and the author's worldview and research approach. Part 2: The Stories (The Story Middle). What is the standard experience of peer review in our field?

This section shares stories told from a variety of viewpoints and roles—author, editor, and referee—and explores how these roles interact, the tension between them, and the duality and sometimes multiplicity of roles experienced by any one individual. Part 3: Coda. These four chapters tie the stories to the idea of open and look in detail at the research method, as well as imagine how we might move forward—reflecting on our past stories to create future ones. When we open ourselves to others' experiences, we reflect on our own.

Stories of Open offers questions for reflection at the end of many chapters in order to assist in the continued exploration of your own experiences with peer review, and encourages the use of these reflections in creating new and improved peer review methods.
