Making

This exciting book takes a profound new approach to the study of four related disciplines and seeks to tie them together. Tim Ingold considers anthropology, archaeology, art and architecture as ways of making, involving the creation of knowledge, the building of environments and the transformation of lives.

Tim Ingold is Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Aberdeen, UK. His books include Lines, The Perception of the Environment and Being Alive.
