Honest and compelling, this book follows the fraught, exciting, and painful process of getting to know "others"--in this case Australian Aborigines in the suburbs who are already "known" through shocking images and worrying statistics. This book depicts the intimacy of the encounter, explains the practical and ethical dilemmas of research, and discusses the fun of engagement in the city's outback.
