Recenzje

'This text is well-documented in both theoretical background and methodological foundations, presenting numerous empirical data samples together with their context and subsequent analysis … Advanced courses addressing embodiment studies, anthropology of sensing, or interdisciplinary theory studies and graduate-level social science methodology courses will find a good fit for this book in the curriculum as an exemplary, rigorous case study … Highly recommended.'
