About This eBook : 

 

From the book’s signature “toolkit” approach to the new chapter on the Environment and Sustainability, all aspects of Ken Guest’s Essentials of Cultural Anthropology work together to inspire students to use the tools of anthropology to see the world in a new way and to come to class prepared to have richer, more meaningful discussions about the big issues of our time. Are there more than two genders? How do white people experience race? What defines a family? Is there such a thing as a “natural” disaster? What causes some people to be wealthy while others live in poverty?  This purchase offers access to the digital ebook only.
