Review of De Los Otros

This book provided a lot of good information pertaining to homosexuality among Mexican men. The nice part about it is that if presents many stories of real people and their interactions with homosexuality in Guadalajara. I would recommend this book with the understanding that it is very explicit sexually.

Reflection of a modern day academic maverick!

Dr. Carrier is a phenomenal ethnographer and writer. He's done a magnificent job in bringing anthropological methods to life in a very palatable form.

Great reading

Fascinating book, based on author's research over two decades. Wonderful insight, on a topic not often written about.
