Recenzje

"This is a pivotal volume that invites readers to immerse themselves in the bountiful landscape of sensory ethnography before offering a host of possibilities for its future development as a unique, and crucial, way of knowing about the lifeworlds we collectively inhabit. All ethnographers and qualitative researchers will gain immensely from dwelling within the pages of this beautifully crafted and thought-provoking book".

-Andrew C. Sparkes, Leeds Beckett University, UK

 

"Readers should be warned that an avalanche of sensorial vibrations will travel through their veins as they dive into this stellar compilation, which places in conversation the 'giants' of sensory ethnography. Our contemporary world starves for caring and meaningful relations. Sensory ethnography responds to this need, and this volume tells us why". 

-Alexandrine Boudreault-Fournier, University of Victoria, Canada

 

"A vital collection of works that will be an instant classic. Under Vannini’s editorship the handbook achieves remarkable coverage and depth.  Not only is his introduction a masterful orientation to the essays inside but it establishes clearly and powerfully that this is an essential resource for anyone interested in ethnography".

-Craig Campbell, University of Texas, Austin, USA
