"John van Willigen's Applied Anthropology: An Introduction should be required reading for anyone interested in the field. This new edition is testimony to the author's devotion to maintaining a coherent and up to date view of a part of anthropology that is changing and expanding at a very rapid pace. Few among us have even attempted to provide such a comprehensive sense of applied work, and fewer still have been so attentive to practical concerns of those students and practitioners who are becoming our next generation of applied anthropologists."
