""Excursions" is another beautifully meandering meditation from a grand wanderer in the landscape of contemporary anthropology. Michael Jackson knows about deep ethnography, having done his fair share of it with admirable verve. But he is more unique among anthropologists in his courage to engage fleeting everyday fragments of the here and there, and to mine the ephemera of momentary experience for their deep resonances with core existential questions. "— Steven Feld, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology and Music, The University of New Mexico "Novelist, poet, and extraordinary ethnographer, Michael Jackson has built a life around excursions and conversations in Africa, the South Pacific, Europe, and North America. The upshot is a book rich in existential insights, Continental philosophy grounded in local worlds, and painterly perceptions of the multiple ways that nature expresses human feelings and values. The chapter on Walter Benjamin is brilliantly executed as are those on Sierra Leonian and Maori friends. Walk with Jackson down these very different roads and he will bewitch you into seeing and feeling life come alive as it really is lived— lives of others and magically your own as well. A beautiful work. "— Arthur Kleinman, Professor of Anthropology and Psychiatry, Harvard University "Michael Jackson has long been recognized as one of our liveliest and most powerful thinkers, a scholar who engages with the phenomena— human, cultural, historical, interactive— at the core of cultural anthropology. With this remarkable book, he makes a significant contribution to current and future discussions about the hallmarks, trajectory, and promise of our field. "— Don Brenneis, Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Santa Cruz ISBN10: 0822340755.
