RESEARCH METHODS FOR ANTHROPOLOGICAL STUDIES OF FOOD AND NUTRITION
Edited by Janet Chrzan and John Brett

John and I are thrilled to announce that our three volume methods manual published by Berghahn has now been issued in an affordable paperback edition. While of course we think that all of it is useful, the third volume is of particular interest to members of SfAA since it’s almost entirely applied. 

RESEARCH METHODS FOR ANTHROPOLOGICAL STUDIES OF FOOD AND NUTRITION

Food Research: Nutritional Anthropology and Archaeological Methods
Food Culture: Anthropology, Linguistics, and Food Studies
Food Health:  Nutrition, Technology, and Public Health

Edited by Janet Chrzan and John Brett

Published in Association with the Society for the Anthropology of Food and Nutrition (SAFN)

The dramatic increase in all things food in popular and academic fields during the last two decades has generated a diverse and dynamic set of approaches for understanding the complex relationships and interactions that determine how people eat and how diet affects culture. These volumes offer a comprehensive reference for students and established scholars interested in food and nutrition research in Nutritional and Biological Anthropology, Archaeology, Socio-Cultural and Linguistic Anthropology, Food Studies and Applied Public Health.
