Agar, M.H
The professional stranger : an informal introduction to ethnography / Michael H. Agar. - New York : Academic Press, 1980. - xi, 227p.: 23 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index
At a time when numerous disciplines, organizations, and communities are discovering ethnography, Agar shows how the fundamentals endure even as they adapt to a world unimagined when the research perspective developed more than 100 years ago. Contemporary discussions of ethnography are loaded with choices, primarily "either-or" option. Just as the first edition crossed the qualitative-quantitative divide, the new edition integrates classical scientific notions with new concepts such as narrative and interpretation.
