"Roger Sanjek is a distinguished sociocultural anthropologist whose vision of anthropology has shaped the field in significant waysEthnography in Today's World is part history of ideas, part memoir, part cultural criticism, and all affirmation of ethnography's particular value for anyone trying to navigate the turbulent cross-currents of social knowledge-making in the United States today." * Carol Greenhouse, Princeton University *
"Ethnography in Today's World shows its author's admirable combination of personal commitments, curiosity about real human lives, intellectual integrity, and long-term scholarly overview. For anyone interested in anthropology as a complicatedly evolving, living research tradition, with its own tendencies always in interaction with a changing world, this is an important book to read." * Ulf Hannerz, Stockholm University *
