Talking about Machines: An Ethnography of a Modern Job
My excitement about this book began to dwindle as I progressed. It is not well written with several irritating and confusing moments. But the content is incredibly interesting to an ethnographic-centric crowd and its status as a classic in the field cannot be denied. Definitely an important read for any student of sociology/ethnomethodology.
