In The Practicing Anthropologist: Volume 1 Building a Nation, readers will find exciting archeology discoveries, social profiles of communities, children, and family life, effects of migration on cultural and national identities, and national policy recommendations. All this was written by Belize's foremost social scientist, Joseph O. Palacio, who is also an indigenous person. It gives him a unique perspective, allowing him to look both in from the outside as an objective anthropologist, and out from the inside as an indigenous person living in Barranco. ... Aspiring students need look no further than the Practicing Anthropologist for inspiration (from the Foreword by Herman J. Byrd, Director, Belize Archives and Record Service)
