Produktinformationen zu „Life Among the Anthros and Other Essays “
"A much needed collection. Its core is an excellent, judicious selection of Geertz's essays in the "New York Review of Books" over more than three decades, plus other key articles that he published elsewhere. This is a remarkable retrospective on Geertz that is not available elsewhere and that captures his public intellectual role acutely and poignantly."--George Marcus, University of California, Irvine
