Recenzje

'Social science researchers have been turning to archival work but there has been little in the way of discussion about what they are doing and why. This excellent book fills that gap. It combines intellectual engagement with accessibility, and practical discussion of working in archives, by four authors who convey their grasp of and enthusiasm for the endeavour. Whether you are experienced at archival research or new to it, you will gain a lot from reading The Archive Project.'
