Reviews
With helpful tips, clear explanations, checklists and guides to further reading, this has much to offer a North American and non-North American readership. Oxbow Book News, Vol. 57, Autumn 2003 Archaeology by Design is a unique and valuable resource for professionals and students alike. It is extremely readable and presents a cogent framework for conducting archeological research. Amateurs with an interest in the profession as well as the subject matter of archeology will also find the book of value... Readers will find the prose to be conversational in style, attribution of other scholars' ideas relaxed, and citations minimal. Throughout the book, the authors strive to distill involved and complex ideas to essential concepts. This is a very difficult task which the volume, on balance, is successful in accomplishing.
