Thinking Ethnographically by Paul Atkinson

Introducing the idea of granular ethnography, this interdisciplinary text shows readers how to take ethnographys theoretical foundations into account and clearly lays out the importance of doing so.

This brilliant new book by Paul Atkinson offers scholars and students alike foundational insights on how to conduct ethnography based on granular analysis, that is work that traces the grain of everyday lifeThis book has a  commanding grasp of the many traditions that define contemporary ethnographic inquiry.  It  will define ethnographic inquiry for the next decade. For this we are in Atkinson′s  debt.

-- Norman K. Denzin
‘A deceptively simple tour de force by a master of ethnography. An essential text for all students and teachers of the method’s theory and practice.’ -- Tia De Nora

A masterclass by a master ethnographer on how to make sense of qualitative data.

-- Stefan Timmermans

A vital contribution. And all the more timely, given the continuing explosion of qualitative and ethnographic research.

-- Sam Hillyard
