This book provides insight for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary researchers and practitioners on what doesn't work, documenting detailed case studies of project failure.

This book stands out from other volumes in the current literature by offering valuable insights for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary researchers and practitioners. It delves into the complexities of project failure, providing detailed case studies that showcase experienced challenges and the deviations from preconceived and theorised processes.
The book is structured with a framing introduction by the editors and a concluding chapter written by Julie Thompson Klein. Each chapter concludes with a reflexive section that synthesises lessons learned and key take-away points for the reader. Drawing from a diverse range of international case studies, the book explores a wide spectrum of failure scenarios for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary projects. These scenarios encompass projects that failed to launch, projects with inadequate personnel for specific objectives, projects that achieved different goals than initially planned, and projects that failed to anticipate significant differences among collaborators.
By illustrating causal links in real-life projects, this volume holds significant relevance for scholars and practitioners seeking to navigate the complexities of conducting interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research. It offers valuable lessons and practical strategies for overcoming challenges and achieving successful outcomes in these interdisciplinary domains.
