Nigel Barley (born 1947 in Kingston upon Thames, England) is an anthropologist famous for the books he has written on his experiences. He studied modern languages at Cambridge University and completed a doctorate in social anthropology at Oxford University. He held a number of academic positions before joining the British Museum as an assistant keeper in the Department of Ethnography, where he remained until 2003.
Barley's first book, The Innocent Anthropologist, was a witty and informative account of anthropological field work among the Dowayo people of Cameroon. Thereafter he published a number of works about Africa and Indonesia in such genres as travel, art, historical biography, and fiction.
Barley has been twice nominated for the Travelex Writer of the Year Award. In 2002, he won the Foreign Press Association prize for travel writing.
When British anthropologist Nigel Barley set up home among the Dowayo people in northern Cameroon, he knew how fieldwork should be conducted. Unfortunately, nobody had told the Dowayo. His compulsive, witty account of first fieldwork offers a wonderfully inspiring introduction to the real life of a cultural anthropologist doing research in a Third World area. Both touching and hilarious, Barley’s unconventional story—in which he survived boredom, hostility, disaster, and illness—addresses many critical issues in anthropology and in fieldwork.

评分特想问问作者巴利,他在写正经报告和这两部调侃日志时,哪一个更让他费尽心思? 是不是他把那些按照人类学方法论所无法归纳和总结的事实全都放进这两部日志中了。跟我写“市场战略分析”一样,在星巴克坐个大半天,写在纸上给老板看的不知所云,写在心里的一堆客观事实却耗了三...
评分有兴趣观看这篇书评的诸位看官,试着回想一下,你是否曾在睡梦中醒来,为自己虚度一个又一个白天懊悔不已?你是否曾在挤满上班人群的地铁中掏出手机,却发现带的是空调遥控器?你是否曾捏着攒了好几个月的钞票兴冲冲跑进服装柜台,却发现有人正在试穿那最后的一件?你是否曾满...
