On Being Wrong
Anthropological Lessons in Spite of Ourselves
- Sienna R. Craig (editor)
- Mark Turin (editor)
Endorsements
On Being Wrong gracefully and productively is not a skill we are taught systematically as researchers. Beyond sharing practical wisdom about what can go wrong and how to deal with it, this excellent collection offers important and at times deeply vulnerable insights into the centrality of relationships for academic knowledge production.
