How to make research findings interesting and accessible to a broad range of audiences is the problem addressed in this volume.Richardson uses her own experiences to explore strategies for writing up the same research in different ways. By showing the reader the stylistic and intellectual imperatives and conventions of different writing media, she prepares the writer for approaching and successfully addressing diverse audiences. Set in a framework which highlights the importance of a self-conscious approach to ethnographic writing, Richardson's book will be useful not only to ethnographers, but to researchers and teachers of language and writing, and to all social scientists trying to present their material in different ways.
