The origins of anthropology lie in expeditionary journeys. But
since the rise of immersive fieldwork, usually by a sole
investigator, the older tradition of team-based social research has
been largely eclipsed. Expeditionary Anthropology argues that
expeditions have much to tell us about anthropologists and the
people they studied. The book charts the diversity of
anthropological expeditions and analyzes the often passionate
arguments they provoked. Drawing on recent developments in gender
studies, indigenous studies, and the history of science, the book
argues that even today, the 'science of man' is deeply inscribed by
its connections with expeditionary travel.
