This is an odd extract from the middle of Latour’s Reassembling the Social. The one book where he explicitly addresses just what he means by actor-network theory (ANT). This chapter is written as an imaginary dialogue between Latour and a sociology student who is wondering if ANT is a method for writing up their essay.

Latour, Bruno. “On the Difficulty of Being an Ant: An Interlude in the Form of a Dialog”. Reassembling the Social: An Introduction to Actor-Network-Theory. Oxford; New York: Oxford University Press, 2005. 141 – 156. (pdf).
