| adam_text | “Christena Nippert-Eng usefully reminds us that empirical work of an ethnographic sort begins with, and ultimately rests on, careful, highly disciplined, and reliably documented observation. Watching Closely tells us just how we can accomplish high quality observational work and offers a series of nine clever exercises to help develop and hone our observational skills. Both veteran and wannabe ethnographers will learn from and enjoy Nippert-Eng s often witty treatment of this most fundamental research practice.
—John Van Maanen, author of Tales of the Field
“In Watching Closely, Nippert-Eng offers a rich and detailed—and by her own account, difficult—guide to the practice of ethnographic observation. Nothing in this book is easy, and nor should it be. Acknowledging the complexities of ethnographic research, this book is honest and brave, and spurs us on to better practice.
— Genevieve Bell, Vice President, INTEL
“Rarely is a book both a practical manual for the dissemination of cutting edge research techniques, and a powerful theoretical statement. Watching Closely is that sort of book. It should be required reading for all fieldworkers, but it will also challenge our ideas about the nature of social research—and for the better.
—John Levi Martin, University of Chicago
“Christena Nippert-Eng’s valuable new text offers a comprehensive introduction to ethnography, while simultaneously challenging many widespread ethnographic practices.
I will use Watching Closely with students at all levels, though Nippert-Engs inspired, well-designed exercises will also benefit more seasoned fieldworkers.
— Rick Robinson, University of Colorado
Although observation is an essential part of any fieldworker s toolkit, many ethnographers observational skills tend to be their weakest. Christena Nippert-Eng s Watching Closely provides a practical, interactive guide for honing one s powers of observation. This book contains nine exercises for practicing different forms of observation, including preparatory briefings and post-exercise discussions. From social and behavioral scientists to user-centered designers and architects, undergraduate students to experienced fieldworkers, Watching Closely is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to develop their skills as a fieldworker.
Christena Nippert-Eng is a sociologist and Professor of Informatics at Indiana University Bloomington.
