ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Erickson, Paul A. / Murphy, Liam D. / Murphy, Pae Liam D., PUBLISHER: University of Toronto Press, Recognizing that anthropology--"the integrated study of humanity in its biological, social, and cultural dimensions--"has deep roots in the Western experience, this concise survey begins in antiquity, then moves forward through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance to the modern era.

Cambridge and the Torres Strait: Centenary Essays on the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Herle, Anita / Rouse, Sandra / Anita, Herle, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Torres Strait has an established place in the history of anthropology because of its association with the Cambridge University Expedition of organised by A. C. Haddon. This early British anthropological expedition is regarded as a seminal event in the formation of academic anthropology in Britain. Its goal was to make an unprecedentedly comprehensive anthropological study embracing ethnology, physical anthropology, psychology, linguistics, sociology and ethnomusicology. The nine interdisciplinary essays in this centenary volume offer ways of looking at and situation the Expedition's work in historical and intellectual debates. Central themes covered are the relationship between the expedition members and the Torres Strait Islanders: the innovations associated with the Expedition and the Expedition's influence on the development of anthropology and psychology. One hundred years on, the results of the Expedition have a contemporary relevance for anthropology and for the Torres Strait Islanders.

The Essence of Anthropology.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Haviland, William A., PUBLISHER: Wadsworth Publishing Company, Haviland et al. present anthropology from a holistic, four-field perspective using three unifying themes to provide a framework for the text: the varied ways human groups face the many challenges of existence, the connections between human culture and human biology, and the disparate impact of globalization on peoples and cultures around the world. Between the superlative writing-which instructors raved about in their reviews-and the strong pedagogical program, the text is designed to help students grasp the concepts and their relevance to today's complex world. Such pedagogy as the "Challenge Issue" at the beginning of each chapter and the "Questions for Reflection" at the end of each chapter--which are linked to the Challenge Issue--provide a framework that ensures that the chapters consistently focus on and reflect the text's themes. Boxed features such as "Biocultural Connections," "Original Studies," and "Anthropology Applied" hone in on particularly interesting examples that give students deeper insight into the meaning and relevance of a wide range of topics covered in the general narrative.

Locating the Field: Space, Place and Context in Anthropology

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Coleman, Simon / Collins, Peter, PUBLISHER: Berg Publishers, Are reports of the death of conventional fieldwork in anthropology greatly exaggerated? This book takes a critical look at the latest developments and key issues in fieldwork. The nature of "locality" itself is problematic for both research subjects and fieldworkers, on the grounds that it now must be maintained and represented in relation to widening (and fragmenting) social frames and networks. Such developments have raised questions concerning the nature of ethnographic presence and scales of comparison. From the social space of a cybercafe, to cities in India, the UK and South Africa among others, this book features a wide range of ethnographic studies that provide new ways of looking at the concepts of "locality" and "site."

Resources & Population

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: MacFarlane, Alan / MacFarlane / Fortes, Meyer, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In many areas of the world destruction of natural resources and the rapid growth of populaton are among the most important problems facing individuals and governments. This book, first published in , utilises the tools of social anthropology and population studies in an attempt to see some of the causes and consequences of populations growth and some of the effects of change on natural resources. It analyses a particular 'community' in the Annapurna range of the central Himalayas during this century, and investigates how the destruction of forests and the growth of settled rice cultivation have occurred, and some of the consequences. The Gurungs are famous as recruits to the Gurkha regiments of the British and Indian armies, and the demographic and economic effects of foreign mercenary labour are among the topics examined.

The Corporeal Image: Film, Ethnography, and the Senses

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: MacDougall, David, PUBLISHER: Princeton University Press, In this book, David MacDougall, one of the leading ethnographic filmmakers and film scholars of his generation, builds upon the ideas from his widely praised "Transcultural Cinema" and argues for a new conception of how visual images create human knowledge in a world in which the value of seeing has often been eclipsed by words. In ten chapters, MacDougall explores the relations between photographic images and the human body-the body of the viewer and the body behind the camera as well as the body as seen in ethnography, cinema, and photography. In a landmark piece, he discusses the need for a new field of social aesthetics, further elaborated in his reflections on filming at an elite boys' school in northern India. The theme of the school is taken up as well in his discussion of fiction and nonfiction films of childhood. The book's final section presents a radical view of the history of visual anthropology as a maverick anthropological practice that was always at odds with the anthropology of words. In place of the conventional wisdom, he proposes a new set of principles for visual anthropology. These are essays in the classical sense--speculative, judicious, lucidly written, and mercifully jargon-free. "The Corporeal Image" presents the latest ideas from one of our foremost thinkers on the role of vision and visual representation in contemporary social thought.

The newly revised table of contents reflects the suggestions of "Conformity and Conflict" users. Thirty percent of the readings are either revised or entirely new to this edition. Nine new articles appear in this edition of Conformity and Conflict (Readings ), three of which were expressly commissioned for this edition ().

An entirely NEW section on globalization includes three new articles that introduce readers to key concepts - how popular culture spreads to different societies, the processes by which cultural artifacts, social structures, and how ideas are adopted and changed as they reach new societies.
