California Bureau of Investigation consultant Patrick Jane has a blatant lack of protocol but is self-assured and driven. The former 'psychic' uses his talent for seeing the clues everyone else misses to solve the most baffling crimes.

The book identifies eight approaches that...

Yet with the emergence during the last decade of a group of anthropologists with recognizable connections to the cultures in which they work, the lines between participant and observer, insider and outsider are no longer so easily drawn. In The Vulnerable Observer, the award-winning anthropologist Ruth Behar offers...
