Editorial Reviews
Review
Everyone who writes ethnography, old and new, should read Writing the New Ethnography. The book demystifies the writing process in a very honest way, and I know I’ll require it the next time I teach my ethnography class. — Nick Trujillo, (California State University, Sacramento)
