Rezensionen

Paul Atkinson, one of sociology s most distinguished ethnographers, has written a remarkable, readable work. Deeply personal and richly analytic, he demonstrates the importance of embodied experience and practical knowledge in making both craft objects and ethnographic texts. Describing his training in shaping wood, silver, glass, and other crafts, materiality and performance are exquisitely joined. This final volume of Atkinson s methodological quartet caps a project that demonstrates how field methods in the hands of a gifted practitioner truly matter. Gary Alan Fine 20210920
