Through fieldwork and interviews conducted at laboratories, dig sites, museums, and entertainment sites, Elana Shever explores vertebrate paleontology in the United States, showing how the practices of scientists and the materiality of fossils together shape the social world and also are shaped by it. The book foregrounds elements of scientific inquiry that have been sidelined: affect, touch, material agency, and the labor of volunteers, technicians, and other nonscientists. It also reveals how paleontology continues to be structured by race, gender, and colonialism.
Elana Shever is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Colgate University and author of Resources for Reform: Oil and Neoliberalism in Argentina.
