Book Description:

When culture makes itself at home in motion, where does an anthropologist stand? Clifford offers a new view of anthropology. It is, he says, a moving picture of a world that reveals itself en route. In this collage of essays, meditations, poems, and travel reports, Clifford takes travel and translation as openings into a complex modernity.
