Rezensionen
"An essential career-planning resource, A Handbook of Practicing Anthropology presents a comprehensive account of contemporary anthropological practice written primarily by anthropological practitioners."
"This book should be in the hands of every student interested in a career in anthropology. There is no other collection that better summarizes opportunities to practice anthropology beyond the academy."
- Erve Chambers, University of Maryland, College Park
"As in development, all practice of anthropology is a contact sport. This is what I always tell my students. For those who teach, practice, or study any aspect of anthropology, including development, Riall Nolan's rich collection is the book to go to, for learning how to apply our knowledge militantly and help improve the world we live in."
- Michael M. Cernea, Research Professor, George Washington University
