This book isn't for everyone, and most of the people who read it, generally don't get it. That's the nature of the beast. Essentially, Garfinkel has re-asked the Durkhiemian question -- How is Social Order Possible? His query is, How is the Sense of Social Order Possible? So the methodology is not a research method, but rather it's the members methods for constructing reality. So the sense of social reality is constructed using documentary methods. This book shows how that's accomplished.
