Research Methods in Anthropology by H Russell Bernard
"Research Methods in Anthropology" is a standard textbook for methods classes in anthropology programmes. Since the 1980s it has launched thousands of students into the field with its combination of rigorous methodological advice, wry humour, common sense advice, and numerous examples from actual field projects. Now the third edition of this textbook contains all the useful methodological advice of previous editions and more: additional material on text analysis, an expanded section on sampling in field settings, the use of computers for fieldwork and analysis, the pros and cons of rapid assessment techniques in anthropology, and dozens of new examples. This book teaches field methods to students coming from scientific, interpretive, or applied anthropological traditions.
H. RUSSELL BERNARD is professor of anthropology at the University of Florida. A expert on research methods, on writing and publishing in previously non-written languages, and on social network analysis, he is author of half a dozen books and editor of the journal Field Methods. He received the Boas Award in 2003 for Exemplary Service to Anthropology.
