| Kurzbeschreibung
A Handbook of Practicing Anthropology is an essential resource for anyone contemplating a career path outside of the academy and wishing to apply anthropological principles to their work in a wide range of professional settings. Written primarily by non-academic anthropologist practitioners, the diverse range of topics includes professional training and preparation, job-hunting, professional development, career planning, ethics, teamwork, and other important aspects of anthropological practice. Key practice sectors such as freelancing, managing a consulting firm, and working for government, non-profits, and corporations are also examined. Additional chapters address work in the domains of health, industry, education, international development, and the military.
