Synopsis

Doing Ethnography is invaluable reading for anyone collecting data through observation. Innovative and thought provoking, it is a refreshing take on ethnography stressing both academic rigor and practical necessity.

The book skilfully introduces the varied tasks and decisions you need to consider before entering the field—helping you to avoid common mistakes and to conduct safe, ethical research.
