Contemporary archaeology is polarised between 'scientists' who analyse, classify and describe, and social theorists, influenced by sociologies of science and culture theory. By emphasising the process of interpretation, this 2001 book shows that there is no necessary conflict between the aims and procedures of the various factions.
