Talking About People: Readings in Contemporary Cultural Anthropology

How do people learn and experience their culture? How do people make a living? What does it mean to be in a family? How do we make sense of peoplesâ€™ beliefs and ritual practices? In exploring questions such as these, this cultural anthropology reader focuses on contemporary global concerns and includes a significant number of articles by authors from outside the United States.
A dynamic development in the fourth edition is the inclusion of â€œAnthropology and Public Debateâ€ sections, in which opposing anthropological arguments on current hot topics are featured. In addition, â€œDoing Fieldworkâ€ essays consider the nature and dilemmas of fieldwork, the changing status of the field, the nature of anthropological learning in the field, and ethical issues and dilemmas.
