This comprehensive book offers a novel methodology rooted in actor-network theory (ANT) and praxiography, which is applied to the realm of medical education. Drawing from a detailed account of practice within a medical setting, the book showcases how researchers in education and medical education can embrace ANT approaches and cultivate a heightened sensitivity to diverse insights found in practice.

The book delves into the profound implications of actor-network theory for research, emphasizing its ability to investigate social and material networks. It establishes the philosophical foundations of ANT, exploring concepts such as learning as disruption, practice as human and material assemblages, and power as regulated difference within worlds of practice. This qualitative approach to exploring complexity aims to unveil unique perspectives on practice that may otherwise go unnoticed, rather than seeking to represent or reduce it.

With a strong foundation in practice, professional learning, and ANT, this book appeals to a wide audience, including academics, scholars, and postgraduate students interested in research methods and medical education. It provides valuable insights and practical tools for those seeking to enhance their understanding of complex phenomena within these fields.
