Overview
This lively, innovative book presents cultural anthropology as an adventure — focusing on students' curiosity about their own participation in humanness and incorporating the excitement of field discoveries throughout. It first presents the basic concepts relating to culture and social organization, applies them to specific cultures, and concludes with a survey of contemporary issues and the contributions in the field of anthropology. Presents anthropology as a human-centered discipline, rather than as an abstract conceptual system. Features the most contemporary research and approaches in anthropology throughout and incorporates recent research on gender.Book Details
