This edited collection presents a range of heretofore unpublished, unavailable methods for the systematic reconstruction of culture from interviews and other discourse. Authors set the design and evolution of their methods in the context of their own research projects, and draw general lessons about investigating culture through discourse. These methods have largely grown out of the work of the cultural models school, and represent the approaches of some of the very best methodologists in cultural anthropology today. An impetus for the volume has been inquiries from researchers, many of them graduate students, about how to conduct the kind of research that cultural models theorists do. This is not a linguistics book; unlike approaches to discourse analysis from linguistics, this volume focuses on culture, treating discourse as a medium especially rich in clues for cultural analysis, and hence a window into culture.

This book is a little known treasure. For anyone interested in using ethnographic analysis, this book provides a nice compilation of methods and theory in a range from Holly Mathews' highly structured approach to Wendy Luttrell's "good enough" approach. Quinn works in the "psychological anthropology" (not at all the same as the psychoanalytic anthropology) tradition, and articles are contributed by two colleagues, Roy D'Andrade and Claudia Strauss. Jane Hill rounds out the collection. This book provided me with inspiration and practical advice as I designed and carried out the research for my dissertation project (in the writing stage!) and I expect that it will continue to do so throughout my career.
