Summary

Research is anchored by assumptions. How do we complete research—and why? This book—The Three Monkeys of Research—explores epistemology, ontology and methodology. Tara Brabazon explores how ideas become knowledge, and how arguments are verified, believed and disseminated to scholars, stakeholders and citizens.

An Empowering and Accessible Introduction to Complex Research Concepts

Tara Brabazon’s The Three Wise Monkeys of Research was such a refreshing surprise. Her explanations made epistemology, ontology and methodology feel like concepts I could genuinely tackle, rather than lofty academic ideas that were beyond my ability to understand.

The way she presents and narrates the material is clear, engaging and grounded, and it gave me a real sense of confidence in approaching these parts of research that had previously felt intimidating. A very worthwhile listen for anyone who wants these big ideas made understandable.

I wish I had heard this book before I completed Honours.

This is a fabulously small book that takes the reader through the essential criteria of research design; epistemology, ontology and methodology. After these ingredients are explained,Tara takes us to positionality and finally to storying. A great book that I feel I will be returning to again and again.

Easy to listen to & understand, Tara uses humour & classics from popular culture to illustrate. Definitional, insightful & immediately applicable to research I value this above other dry research books. Chapter on storying vs storytelling is a gift to social sciences, humanities, lived experience & women's studies. LOVE the content, style & thought provocation of this little book. BRILLIANT.

Brilliant MUST read for HDR students
