the Western Calendar. Information is provided on its origin and
development, the principles of its construction, the purposes for
which it is employed, its deficiencies and the means by which these
deficiencies can be amended. The text also contains a list of

mean solar time. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in the Western Calendar and the measurement of time in
general.
Theorist Clifford Geertz's influence extends far beyond
anthropology. Indeed the case could be made that he has been
abandoned by anthropology and that his legacy has been transferred
to a more diffuse community of scholars interested in
interpretation. This volume reflects the breadth of his influence,
looking at Geertz as a theorist rather than as an anthropologist.
To date, there has been no impartial, comprehensive, and
authoritative work published on this critical figure. Contributors
include an interdisciplinary team of leading scholars investigating
the three core components of contested legacy: theory, method, and
writing.
