Reviews

'The authors are delivering an appealing route for the reading and understanding of ethnography, one that endows the creative powers of ethnography its proper due ! Often exciting, and certainly sophisticated, it is a work that introduces profitable means for rethinking major issues in the discipline. On the other hand, when used as a textbook, the experience should certainly lead to lively engagement and classroom debate on the most satisfying of levels. Hart's remarkable contribution should set the cats among the pigeons in any classroom, or seminar, discussion.' -- Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute
