In The Alternative Introduction to Biological Anthropology, Second
Edition, author Jonathan Marks presents an innovative framework for
thinking about the major issues in the field with fourteen original
essays designed to correlate to the core chapters in standard
textbooks. Each chapter draws on and complements—but does not
reconstitute (except for the sake of clarity)—the major data and
ideas presented in standard texts. Marks explores such topics as
how we make sense of data about our origins, where our modern ideas
come from, our inability to separate natural facts from cultural
facts and values as we try to understand ourselves, and the social
and political aspects of science as a culturally situated mental
activity.
