Exposing the inadequacies of old conceptions of static cultures and detached observers, the book argues instead for social science to acknowledge and celebrate diversity, narrative, emotion, and subjectivity. This book is a call for a new approach to thinking and writing about culture, arguing for social science to acknowledge and celebrate diversity, narrative, emotion and the unavoidability of subjectivity. A new introduction to this edition gives powerful reasons for protecting diversity within and outside the academy.
