Great Starting Place!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I have used the earlier edition of this textbook twice in a college seminar for first-year students on ethnographic interviewing. The students liked the book because it is very *grounded*: They were easily able to get the point, and could find ways to apply those points in their own research. I have seen the new edition, and I believe it is a nice improvement over the original-- it felt like lots of teaching-experience went into the revisions. The student papers in the new edition seem a little more current, and selected from a larger number of successful papers. I also remember being pleased with the inclusion of more materials on the ethical considerations of ethnographic research. If you want to teach hands-on ethnographic method, this is an *excellent* place to start!
