Recenzii

"This book is recommended as useful for anyone writing ethnography in that it acknowledges the difficulties of engaging in anthropology, but also its challenges and rewards compared to other disciplines." * Anthropological Notebooks "...an excellent collection of anthropological autobiographical essays focusing on the positionality and resource of the self in ethnography - The essays are engaging and well written - [and] remind me of some of those classic anthropological / ethnographic collections - interesting in their own right to read, but also serving as a good teaching resource." * Amanda Coffey, Cardiff University
