Explore 'Towards an Anthropology of Data,' a compelling collection of theoretical essays that examine the multifaceted role of data across various contexts. This groundbreaking book, published by John Wiley & Sons in 2021, offers 180 pages of rich insights into how data intersects with ethnography and anthropology. With an ISBN of 9781119816768, this BRAND NEW volume showcases contributions that illuminate the emergence of data in unexpected locations—from government databases to ecological field stations, and even in domestic settings. Engaging critically with topics like privacy, social identity, and the implications of big data, these essays prompt readers to reconsider traditional anthropological perspectives. As ethnographers increasingly recognize the significance of data in their field sites, this book offers vital frameworks to understand how data shapes and reflects our social world. The authors challenge the notion that data is solely a tool for business or technology, suggesting that it possesses deeper anthropological value. Delve into discussions on the dystopian visions surrounding data, privacy invasions, and political manipulation, while discovering new theoretical interests in data as an anthropological subject. Perfect for scholars, students, and enthusiasts eager to understand data's far-reaching impact, this volume is essential for modern anthropology studies.

Description:
This volume presents a set of theoretically inventive pieces that engage with data across its many locations, from government databases to ecological field stations, from kitchen tables to concrete bunkers.


Contributors demonstrate how thinking with data can be conceptually generative for anthropology, prompting us to reconsider our understanding of topics including bodies, persons, and the social itself

Shows how 'big' data which may have once seemed limited to business or high tech, ethnographers are now finding data “ and its attendant values and practices “ in their field sites around the world

Examines how data has motivated a sweep of dystopian visions, signaling the invasion of privacy, political manipulation, or shadowy data doubles

Discusses how anthropologists have been cautious in taking data itself as an object of theoretical interest, even as the effects of data become manifest in our ethnographies

By putting data in its place, the chapters collected here develop conceptual tools that will prove useful for anthropologists who find 'data' in their data

Beautiful Shimmer
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This worked well for a wedding. I thought it would be a little more bronzier but I loved the sparkle. It is my first time using a body shimmer though, so it did what I bought it for and next time just need to self tan prior!

Another Amazing Product from SKIN1004
I own at least 4 products from SKIN1004, because they really are a great skin care brand to invest in with. For reference, I have dry sensitive skin, I am prone to dark spots, some acne, dry patches and bigger pores. I have always had bad experiences with toner's so I was really hoping this would work for me. And it did more than that! I do believe my acne has gone down since using this, and to really test it out I finished the bottle after 5 and half months of daily morning and nighttime use. My skin feels smoother and bit brighter, more than anything it really keeps your skin clean without drying it out. It doesn't have a particular smell, the consistency is like water, and when you apply it is a bit tacky but no worries once it dries down completely, that goes away. This toner could be used by all skin types in my opinion. I will be trying their brightening toner soon, which I am even more excited about! Would repurchase.

A Skin Saver
I've been using the Centella toner for a week now, and it's quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. Infused with Centella Asiatica extract, this toner is perfect for calming irritated or sensitive skin. The texture is light and watery absorbs quickly without any sticky residue making it ideal for layering or using as a refreshing mist throughout the day. It is very soothing reduces redness and inflammation, especially after exfoliating or sun exposure. It is very hydrating and gives a subtle moisture boost without clogging pores. It has no alcohol or fragrance, so it's great for sensitive or acne-prone skin. I use it after cleansing and before serum, and I’ve noticed my skin feels more balanced and less prone to breakouts or irritation. It pairs well with other products and hasn’t caused any pilling or sensitivity. If your skin leans sensitive, inflamed, or needs a calming reset, this Centella toner is worth trying. Affordable, gentle, and effective. I definitely recommend this product
