Dr Andrew Beatty
Reader in Anthropology

Marie Jahoda 141

Summary

I became interested in anthropology after spending a couple of years travelling in Asia; conducted several years’ fieldwork in Indonesia in two contrasting settings: tribal Nias and Muslim Java; British Academy Postdoc 1990-3; worked at Brunel since 1998; in 2007 launched the first Masters in psychological anthropology outside the USA.  Besides many articles, I have published five books (as sole author) and am working on a sixth, a commissioned study of Clifford Geertz.
