J. Bryan Page and Merrill Singer create a comprehensive examination of the whole field of drug ethnography-methodology that involves access to the hidden world of drug users, the social spaces they frequent, and the larger structural forces that help construct their worlds. They explore the important intersections of drug ethnography with globalization, criminalization, public health (including the HIV/AIDS epidemic, hepatitis, and other diseases), and gender, and also provide a practical guide of the methods and career paths of ethnographers. 410 0$aStudies in medical anthropology. 606 $aDrug abuse 606 $aEthnology 615 0$aDrug abuse. 615 0$aEthnology. 676 $a362.29089 700 $aPage$b J.
