書名:公路上的人類學家 
編者:張展鴻 、駱吉婷 
簡介
「公路」,本來是連貫兩地的基建工程。
公路的旅程上,經常出現無法預期的「故事」,而其中的戲劇性情節不僅是社會萬花筒,更展示了人生無常和人事多變的情和境。因此「公路」也成為電影故事的敍事技巧,強調自我的探索和反思。
本書借用了「公路上」一詞來呈現一群從事人類學的年青學者和研究生在走過當下中國社會田野時的觀察和感受。他們從事研究的漫長歲月裏,和每個香港市民一樣,不單有成功的經驗,也有失敗的教訓,他們在奔馳過的公路旅程中留下段段心路歷程,把遊走在田野的機遇、探索和融會等經驗與大家分享。

Title: Anthropologists on the Road
Editors: Sidney C. H. Cheung and Luo Jiting
Introduction:
A Road is an infrastructure that connects one place to another.
Anything can happen in a long road journey – every story tells something about society, and altogether they weave lives between individuals. For this, “road movie” is a popular film genre that stresses self-exploration and rethinking.
Taking the spirit of the “road”, this book retells observations and reflections after a group of fresh anthropology researchers and postgraduates walked through the fields of contemporary China. It’s been time that they began their journey of research and, just as any ordinary citizen of Hong Kong, have come through successes and failures. Miles and miles there are stories that touch their hearts, which they would really like to share with the readers along with their other experiences on the road.
