Book Description
Through the Lens of Anthropology: An Introduction to Human Evolution and Culture (PDF) is a concise but comprehensive introductory ebook that uses the twin themes of sustainability and food to illustrate the connected nature of anthropology’s 4 major subfields: archaeology; cultural; biological; and linguistic anthropology. By viewing the world through the lens of anthropology; students will learn not only about anthropological theories; methods; and ethics but also the ways in which anthropology is relevant to their everyday lives and embedded in the culture that surrounds them.
Beautifully illustrated throughout; with over 150 full-color images; feature boxes; figures; and maps; this is an anthropology textbook with a fresh perspective; a lively narrative; and plenty of popular topics that are sure to engage students. A strong pedagogical framework structures the ebook: every chapter features learning objectives; glossary terms; and chapter summaries; as well as review and discussion questions that guide students’ analysis of the topics; themes; and issues raised in the textbook. This ebook is very interesting to read; manageable to teach and succeeds at igniting interest in anthropology as a discipline.
