About The Book
Complementing the concept of object biography, the contributors to this volume use the complex construct of itineraries to trace the places in which objects come to rest or are active, the routes through which things circulate, and the means by which they are moved.

Raves and Reviews
Things in Motion offers a refreshing and provocative perspective that moves scholars beyond a biographical approach to objects and toward a consideration of their dynamic routes and itineraries. Global examples drawn from archaeological and museum contexts illustrate the persuasive power of these new intellectual developments. This volume will prove essential reading for all archaeologists and anthropologists currently engaged in theorizing the material world.--Lynn Meskell, Department of Anthropology, Director, Stanford Archaeology Center
