This methods book will guide the reader through the process of conducting and producing an autoethnographic study through the understanding of self, other, and culture. Readers will be encouraged to follow hands-on, though not prescriptive, steps in data collection, analysis, and interpretation with self-reflective prewriting exercises and self-narrative writing exercises to produce their own autoethnographic work. Chang offers a variety of techniques for gathering data on the selffrom diaries to culture grams to interviews with othersand shows how to transform this information into a study that looks for the connection with others present in a diverse world. She shows how the autoethnographic process promotes self-reflection, understanding of multicultural others, qualitative inquiry, and narrative writing. Samples of published autoethnographies provide exemplars for the novice research
Editorial : This book is written by a competent ethnographer who has studied the role of the self in research, and the relationship of self to culture, and desires to provide that knowledge for those who want to include the self in their ethnographic research. This book will be useful for ethnographers who work from a traditional realist perspective and who want to reflect on personal experience in a systematic way. It is especially helpful for those who desire a methods cookbook to guide them. It thoroughly and insightfully covers all the steps for doing the kind of cultural analysis that includes experiences of the self that Chang advocates.” Carolyn Ellis, Biography
First, Williams didn't keep the same format in first book, where it was just Celia telling the story in 1st person.

No ONE book will teach you all you need to know, but these three books as a set come pretty close!. I chose the rating of 'I like it', because there is so much good information that more time is required to comprehend it. It has probably got the best article on fig parrots that I have seen, and many other articles are good as well. I was able to simplify a number of the pieces by mentally excluding some of the harder harmonies, but it's still hard going for a newbie.
I would recommend this as a fantastic collection of
