DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/1468794115571435 Abstract: Reviews the book, Harold Garfinkel: The Creation and Development of Ethnomethodology by Dirk vom Lehn (2014). In this book, Dirk vom Lehn provides a well-judged introduction to ethnomethodology (EM) and a fitting tribute to its late, great, progenitor Harold Garfinkel. The book deals with Garfinkel’s intellectual development; personal details introduced therein are interesting and relevant. The biographical elements of the book are as much of EM as its inventor. The book is, as one would expect, very well researched. It succeeds in bringing together various works and writings of Garfinkel to tell the story of EM’s development from the ‘proto-ethnomethodological’ studies of jurors’ and coders’ practices, through to the latter directions and contributions of EM’s program and the influence of EM in a number of fields of contemporary sociological inquiry. Amplifying the research required to produce a book such as this is a care and enthusiasm in the writing that will re mind those working in the field why they were attracted to this ‘alternate, asymmetrical and incommensurate’ sociology in the first place.
