Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Where are the highest-paying jobs in archaeology? How are women faring in the discipline? Does graduate training properly prepare students for the job market? The Society for American Archaeology recently surveyed its entire membership and other American archaeologists to assess the state of the profession. The results were startling, tracking a discipline rapidly expanding beyond its academic roots through the explosive growth of government and private sector archaeology. Gender inequality has become more subtle, though it is still evident. These and other important insights form the core of the first sytematic attempt to capture the state of the discipline in terms of training, job and salary distribution, research interests, publications, and funding. Over 150 figures and tables. Published in cooperation with the Society for American Archaeology
