When they stray from rigorous agendas and are forced to confront radically unexpected or unexplained experiences? This book deals with these questions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This work is a refreshing counter to an increasingly neopositivist academy, a must-read for those interested in what a critical, phenomenological ethnography looks and \u003ci\u003efeels\u003c\/i\u003e like in anthropology today.\"—Leslie A. Robertson, \u003ci\u003eBC Studies\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“In this book, thick ethnographic description, thoughtful analysis, and theoretical postulate borrowed from cognitive psychology, social psychology, anthropology, folklore and history are interwoven into a beautiful fabric so that ethnography in practice emerges in present acts as narratives about the past. . . . The result is an illuminating volume about a complex research method, imbued with spontaneity and much affected by a wide array of emotional, ethical, practical, and moral tensions and dichotomies. . . . Readers may also find it useful and interesting to go backstage with an anthropologist, and see what lies behind the finished performance.”—Gregory S.
