This exceptional book will become canonical for its meticulously tested step-by-step instructions, its thoughtful, generous, and generative set of solutions, and the possibilities it will open up in the academy.” -- Emilia Sanabria, author of * Plastic Bodies: Sex Hormones and Menstrual Suppression in Brazil * “The Ethnographer’s Way is an outstanding guide for students to investigate their own set of desires for places, questions, and theories that can become the conceptual glue that holds a project together for proposals, fieldwork, and writing. Deeply attentive to the psychological difficulty of imagining a truly ethnographic project before the fieldwork has been done, it is a manual for transforming the feeling of being overwhelmed into insight. This is a much-needed book for which there is no equivalent.” -- Joseph Dumit, author of * Drugs for Life: How Pharmaceutical Companies Define Our Health * “Offering an agenda for contemporary ethnographic research design that finally brings our disciplinary methods in line with current ethnographic theory, The Ethnographer’s Way provides a radically transformed cartography for research.
