Advanced praise
' This excellent book encapsulates…a combination of the richness of the
material theory concerning human engagements with the material world and
its ability to speak to current issues of identity makes historical
archaeology both stimulating and controversial.' Chris Gosden, School of
Archaeology, University of Oxford
'Written from the contextual approach, this volume shows that the right
and the left in historical archaeology make a preferential treatment of
the poor and of their place in an improved society. Thus, historical
archaeology is far more unified than supposed. These overviews will guide
professionals through central debates in historical archaeology with
enough opinion to punctuate the field's development with both intelligence
and provocation.' Mark P. Leone, Department of Anthropology, University of
Maryland
