Reviews

Fragile Resonance is a valuable contribution to the body of ethnographies that focus on the unpaid care of older people within the family setting from an intimate, ethical, and phenomenological perspective. * American Anthropologist * Because the book also addresses an audience of carers, Danely makes sure not to overload it with academic jargon, which is appreciated. Those who look for philosophical, historical, and theoretical contexts can find this in the illuminating and in-depth footnotes.
