Reed-Danahay (anthropology, U. of Texas at Arlington) uses an ethnographic approach to offer new insights into the work of the influential social critic and activist Pierre Bourdieu. Incorporating Bourdieu's reflections on his life and career into her analysis, Reed-Danahay locates Bourdieu in the French milieu and in current discussions of Europe and its colonial legacy. She addresses Bourdieu's major themes and ideas and discovers implications of his work for understanding emotions, social space and personal narrative. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
