In this masterly, state of the art work, Ulf Hannerz maps the
contemporary social world of anthropologists and its relation to
the wider world in which they carry out their work. Raising
fundamental questions such as 'What is anthropology really about?',
'How does the public understand, or misunderstand, anthropology?'
and 'What and where do anthropologists study now, and for whom do
they write?', Hannerz invites anthropologists to think again about
where their discipline is going. Full of insights and practical
advice from Hannerz's long experience at the top of the discipline,
this book is essential for all anthropologists who want their craft
to survive and develop in a volatile world, and contribute to new
understandings of its ever-changing diversity and interconnections.
