An Anthropological introduction to Asia !!!,
By
This review is from: Asia's Cultural Mosaic: An Anthropological Introduction (Paperback)
The photograph cover of this book really questions my curiousity !!!
This book was written in Anthropological perspectives - written for students of Asia (Not culturally biased to western perspectives) it takes mainstream anthropological themes on kinship, the economy or gender and examines on Asian cultures and societies provided by anthropologists, sociologists, and others. It features on Asian countries from Singapore, Japan, Mongolia, Indonesia, India, China ... focusing on anthropological perspectives such as woman's social status in Asia, family and marriage kinship, socio-economic status between and among ranks of races, social-politics, religion, etc... Additionally focusing as well on sociological perspectives of colonism, pre-capitalism, post-colonial influences on Asian societies. This book is a MUST for a Westerner who wishes to know more of Asia through Anthropological and Sociological perspectives !!!
