dc.description.abstract | This original introduction to cultural anthropology is a textbook like no other. Structured as a narrative rather than a compendium of facts about cultures and concepts, it invites students to think of anthropology as a series of stories that emerge from cultural encounters in particular times and places. These moments of encounter are illustrated with reference to both classic and contemporary ethnographic examples - from Coming of Age in Samoa to Coming of Age in Second Life - allowing readers to grasp anthropology's sometimes problematic past, while still capturing the excitement and potential of the discipline. | |
