Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

A lot of fascinating information to be found in this account, with many interesting parallels for British archaeology. * Current Archaeology * A veritable mine of information, recording the results of a survey commissioned by the Society for American Archaeology of more than 1600 archaeologists. * Antiquity * Zeder's book is valuable in showing how archaeologists now view themselves and their field and for documenting important facts about the structure and funding of American archaeology. The census provides grist forthe mill of disciplinary introspection. -- William Green, Beloit College * Illinois Archaeology * A monumental task well done...a benchmark well into the 21st century. -- From the Foreword by Patty Jo Watson

Reseña del editor:

Where are the highest-paying jobs in archaeology? How are women faring in the discipline? Does graduate training properly prepare students for the job market? In 1994, the Society for American Archaeology surveyed its entire membership and other American archaeologists to assess the state of the profession. The results were startling and are presented in a compelling fashion here.
