SUMMARY:Eye on Africa: Cal Biruk
DESCRIPTION:
 About the Talk:\n
 \n
 	This talk is based on my recently 
 published book, "Cooking Data: Culture 
 and Politics in an African Research World." 
 Drawing on long term ethnography with demographic 
 survey research projects in rural Malawi, 
 the book tells the life story of quantitative 
 health data, tracking and analyzing their 
 transformation from pencil marks recorded on 
 a survey page into statistics consumed by policy 
 makers, researchers and the public. \n\n
 Price: Free to the public\n
