Reviews

""Miller's book is a brilliant case for the importance of a book of praise, as distinct from the customary critique, showing what it means for a society to allow its members a good life in a world of much one-sided individualism."" —Arne Johan Vetlesen, University of Oslo ""Daniel Miller shows us what a truly humane anthropology can be. In an age of rhetorical drama his writing can seem disarmingly modest in tone, but the conversation he prompts between philosophy and fieldwork yields rich ethnographic insights."" —Webb Keane, University of Michigan and author of Ethical Life: Its Natural and Social Histories ""... a rich description of cultural life."" —The Irish Times
