Beginning with an explanation of what an interview is, the author covers all the required techniques, from making initial contact with the interviewee to writing up the interview for publication, or recording it for reference. Guidance as to interviewing techniques is given, as well as advice on planning and researching before the interview, getting the best from the interviewee, taping the interview and avoiding libel.
