Simply Institutional Ethnography by Dorothy E Smith

Written by the two preeminent voices in the field, this book is a guide to the fundamentals of institutional ethnography.
"This book serves as a fitting legacy of the work of authors Smith and Griffith, two pioneers in the field of institutional ethnography, both of whom passed away prior to this book's publicationThe authors encapsulate decades of their efforts to create and develop this particularly unique form of sociology and document its conceptual and theoretical refinement along the way. The result is a sophisticated, comprehensive overview that, although rather complex at times, nonetheless lays out for readers the promise and potential of this approach to studying human lived behavior an.d the myriad institutions in which such behavior is embedded." -- J. R. Mitrano, Central Connecticut State University * CHOICE *
