"With the increasing use of high-fidelity simulation and videotaping in healthcare education, this book provides a valuable framework for video-reflexive ethnography in qualitative research. It extensively reviews the literature with citations reflecting the previous work on this subject. It is a valuable source of current information for qualitative researchers conducting video-reflexive ethnography."
