In ‘Ways of Walking’ anthropologist Jo Lee Vergunst combines discussions of embodiment, place and materiality to address this 'technique of the body'. The book (a reissue of the one in 2008) presents studies of walking in a range of regional and cultural contexts, exploring the diversity of walking behaviours and the variety of meanings these can embody. As an original collection of ethnographic work that is both coherent in design and imaginative in scope, this primarily anthropological book includes contributions from geographers, sociologists and specialists in education and architecture, offering insights into human movement, landscape and social life.
