Ashley Mears is a writer, sociologist and former fashion model. What happens if a sociologist decides to do immersive ethnographic research and become a party girl for 6 months, following some of the biggest promoters around New York & Miami and assessing what's going on?

What are the anthropological underpinnings of nightclubs?
