Description
Cultural Anthropology integrates critical thinking, explores rich ethnographies, and prompts students to think creatively about today’s culture and society. Authors Serena Nanda and Richard L. Warms show how historical studies and anthropological techniques can help readers reflect on the nature, structure, and meaning of human societies. Updates to the Thirteenth Edition include a new chapter on race and ethnicity; emphasis on areas such as inequality, power, gender, race, and history; discussions of issues around medical care and public health; and new features that reflect changes in world culture.
