chapter presents students with an overview of cultural
anthropology, highlighting its unique characteristics and how it
has changed over the years. The following chapters are divided into
units. Unit One introduces core concepts and methods used in
anthropology, including culture. In Unit Two, students read
selections on a range of topics, all relating to how people and
groups have been defined and understood both within and outside
