Description:
In this book, the contributors revisit older debates within the discipline about the relationship between anthropology's messages and the rhetoric that conveys those messages in new ways. They ask how and why anthropology is persuasive and how artful forms of anthropology in the media and the classroom shape and shift public understandings of the human world.
