Each chapter includes: * clear explanations of classic and contemporary anthropological research * help with connecting anthropological theories to real-life issues * links to globalization * interviews with key anthropologists about their work and the discipline as a whole * a lively range of activities and discussion points * ideas for personal investigations * suggested ethnographic films and further reading * a clear glossary * a focus on developing examination and writing skills. Introducing Anthropology aims to inspire and enthuse a new generation of anthropologists.It is suitable for a range of different readers, from students studying the subject at school-level to university students looking for a clear and engaging entry point into anthropology. |
