Cultural Anthropology

This careful revision of one of the best-selling cultural anthropology texts now features dramatically revised coverage of kinship, families and descent in Chapter 15, expanded coverage of ethnographic techniques in Chapter 2, new material on music and dance in Chapter 13, and much more. A wealth of the "Where In The World" Maps lets students view important geographical data up close as well as in the broader context of the geographical area. Helpful marginal icons tell students when more information is available on the CD-ROM, Website, or elsewhere in the text. Engaging boxed features, Interesting Issues, In the News and the widely-acclaimed Beyond the Classroom, capture student interest by focusing on provocative issues, current events and student research.
