Paperback. As emotion is often linked with irrationality, it's no surprise researchers tend to underreport the emotions they experience in the field. This book explores the idea that emotion is not antithetical to thought or reason, but is instead an untapped source of insight that can complement more traditional methods of anthropological research. Editor(s): Davies, James; Spencer, Dimitrina. Num Pages: 288 pages, 1 table. BIC Classification: JHM. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 155 x 228 x 17.
