Paper Summary

The article talks about how researchers can build theories by studying multiple cases. They use real-life examples to come up with new ideas and theories. Each case is like a mini-experiment that helps create new theories. By being very clear in their writing and careful in their research design, researchers can overcome challenges in using case studies for theory building.
