Product Overview
Drawing on intriguing, vivid examples from their own research in Indonesia and Mexico, John Monaghan and Peter Just examine ways in which anthropology has advanced our understanding of human society and culture.

How are groups of peoplefamily, class, tribe, nationformed and maintained? What is the nature of belief, economic exchange, the self?
