About this product
Product Information
The book Profiles of Anthropological Praxis is something of a sequel to Anthropological Praxis: Translating Knowledge into Action , published in 1987 (Westview Press). As a casebook of anthropological projects, the new version shares a fascinating breadth of award-winning projects undertaken by applied anthropologists to address the needs of an array of stakeholders and situations. Each chapter will describe a problem and how a project attempted to address it with the following structure: Problem Overview, Project Description, Anthropologist's Role and Impact, Outcomes, and the Anthropological Difference - that is, how the unique approaches of anthropology were effectively applied to address human problems.

Reviews
"This book is terrific! The reader gets to travel around the world with different anthropologists, get exposed to important issues of the day, and observe how those anthropologists try to address those issues. Each chapter sheds light on how anthropologists bring their knowledge, perspective and skills together to make the world a better place." * Elizabeth K. Briody, Purdue University "This volume is a relevant, timely, and valuable contribution to anthropological praxis. Each case study illustrates the theoretical rigor, ethnographic expertise, and ethical principles that inform the anthropological study of human problems across regions and field sites." * Kathryn A. Kozaitis, Georgia State University

My book arrived yesterday, 6/5/24. As per the seller's description it was/is in "Like New" condition (despite the bare minimal packaging---a gray Mylar type plastic envelope only). There was a 1/2" to 3/4" tear on the lower binding portion of the dust jacket---otherwise it would've qualified for "Mint" condition. Very pleased with the transaction! Thank you very much greatbookprices1!
