%X The second interview is with Ian Shaw, co-founder of Qualitative social work, and co-editor for many years. The parallels between Roy and Ian¡¯s backgrounds and subsequent career and scholarly development are notable. Like Roy, Ian refers to his working class background, the influence of religious belief on disciplinary interests, professional development and political leanings. Similarly, we witness the ways in which the direct experience of undertaking broadly quantitative research studies contributed to the development of distinctively qualitative methodological preferences. Taken together, these two interviews provide an insightful and inspiring window onto the intersection between individual and intellectual biography, professional practice and disciplinary identity
