Ethnographic Investigations

"This volume is destined to set the tone and agenda for discussion of subjectivity for a considerable time. It illuminates the threads that span the vast existential space between the edifice of technologized global institutions and the nuanced particularities of individual experience. This is a dynamic (definite, state-of-the art) contribution to anthropology and the human sciences by a stellar cast of authors." --Thomas Csordas, author of "Language, Charisma, and Creativity: The Ritual Life of a Religious Movement"
"This is a timely and much needed volume. No other works address the cultural, political, and social dimensions of subjectivity in such a fresh and conceptual way." --Robert Desjarlais, author of "Sensory Biographies"
