'Written in a clear, accessible style, this inspirational book is
both a practical guide and a survey of the different ways of doing
ethnography. Drawing on wide-ranging examples and using classic and
contemporary ethnographies, the authors demonstrate the importance
of developing an ethnographic sensibility. A most valuable
resource'

Ethnography in Education is an accessible guidebook to the
different approaches taken by ethnographers studying education.
Drawing on their own experience of teaching and using these
methods, the authors help you cultivate an 'ethnographic
imagination' in your own research and writing.
With extended examples of ethnographic analysis, the book will
introduce you to:
- ethnographic 'classics'
- the best existing textbooks
- debates about new approaches and innovations.
This book is ideal for postgraduate students in Education and
related disciplines seeking to use an ethnographic approach in
their Masters and Doctoral theses.
