"Brian Morris blazed a lot of trails. He is a scholar of genuine
daring and great humanity, and his work deserves to be read and
debated for a very long time to come."
--David Graeber, author of Debt: The First 5,000 Years "This is a
marvelously original book bursting with new ideas. I have read it
with enormous interest and admiration. This collection of essays is
an outstanding contribution to anthropology, environmental thought,
and anarchism."
--Andrej Grubacic, professor and department chair in Anthropology
and Social Change, California Institute of Integral Studies "Before
there was 'anarchist anthropology, ' there was Brian Morris. This
collection introduces the work of an intrepid pioneer, taking
anarchist perspectives to where you would least expect them."
--Gabriel Kuhn, editor and translator of All Power to the Councils!
A Documentary History of the German Revolution of 1918-1919,
Liberating Society from the State and Other Writings by Erich
Mühsam, and Revolution and Other Writings by Gustav Landauer "Brian
Morris's scholarship is nothing if not compendious.... Morris's
achievement is formidable. His control of such a breadth of
material is enviable, and his style is always lucid. He makes
difficult work accessible. His prose conveys the unmistakable
impression of a superb and meticulous lecturer at work."
--Anthony P. Cohen, University of Edinburgh "Morris's acerbic
analysis of established literature is matched by nuanced
ethnographic analysis.... He writes accessibly about complicated
matters."
--Allen F. Roberts, University of California, Los Angeles
