From the Back Cover

This Volume first appeared in 1984 in a series on research methods in social anthropology in response to a complete lack of up-to-date texts in this area. Now is response to great demand it is reissued in paperback.
The book covers the relationship between theory and the research process, the history of field methods, the various research approaches, the experience of field work and its associated ethical problems. More practical problems are not forgotten and guidance is given on preparing for the field, data production and writing up.
