这本书的评论描述了“民族志和虚拟世界”作为一个非常实用的手册，旨在研究人员，学生和学者有兴趣使用民族志的方法来了解社会互动的背景下，互联网，电脑游戏和虚拟世界。本书的大部分内容是根据研究项目的各个阶段组织的，但也定义并简要介绍了民族志方法的历史，因此可以作为民族志在任何背景下应用的有用信息来源，而不仅仅是作为虚拟世界的研究方法。
This book review describes 'Ethnography and Virtual Worlds' as a very practical handbook aimed at researchers, students and academics interested in using ethnographic methods to understand social interactions within the contexts of the Internet, computer games and virtual worlds. The majority of the book is organised according to the stages of a research project but also defines and give a brief history of ethnographic methods, and so may serve as a useful source of information on the application of ethnography in any context and not simply as a research approach for the virtual world.
