Visual Research is a short and practical introduction to the use of images in social sciences. Although the book is not exclusively designed for anthropologists, it refers to anthropological case studies and literature and will be of interest to all anthropologists. The aim of the authors, both involved in the Society for Visual Anthropology (a section of the American Anthropological Association), is to give an overview of key concepts and issues related to visual research and to provide guidelines for the making and use of images in the social sciences.

Mots clés: visual anthropology; research methods
