5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Introduction to the Basics of Anthropology
This book is great for beginning anthropology students or people who just want to learn a little more about it! Basically, the author hits the main points (kinship, culture, primates, language, etc.) in an extremely easy to understand fashion. There are clear, concise definitions throughout, which I found to be very helpful when using it in the college classroom...

1.0 out of 5 stars what a waste of my time
I can't believe we actually pay anthropologists to find out such worthless facts about people from who knows and who cares where.
