Rezensionen

"An eye opener: Field, Fox and their contributors convincingly demonstrate to interested laypersons, to students, and to established academics from all fields how young anthropologists today pursue their profession in a whole range of creative new ways. - Andre Gingrich, University of Vienna and Austrian Academy of Sciences A thoughtful and multifaceted collection that should be essential reading for graduating anthropologists looking for a place to combine the anthropological calling with meaningful work - Collaborative Anthropologies"
