Rezensionen

'Get your head into this extraordinary 'introduction to anthropology' and get ready for the ride of your life. Shocking, daring and disorienting at times, this book is also a grounding, ground-breaking and generous guide. It will orient you to developing uncommon senses of the world. Doing Anthropology will open new and unexpected ways of seeing, knowing and understanding human action, organisations and relations.'
