The book is thoroughly up-to-date and gives full consideration to
contemporary issues in addition to the classic topics. Students
will gain a solid understanding of how the work of anthropology is
relevant to today's world. The chapters combine theory with method
and practice so that students gain important theoretical grounding
in the discipline as well as a good understanding of what
anthropologists actually do. The socio-cultural approach and the
inclusion of a range of global ethnographic examples mean that this
book has broad appeal/relevance and is particularly suitable for
students outside of North America. Unlike many existing textbooks
it does not focus just on cultural or social anthropology, or
contain mostly US case studies. Pedagogic features have been
included to aid students' understanding and revision, including
text boxes, images, glossary, and further reading. Additional
resources are provided via a companion website.
