4.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent retrospective of Steward's work.,
This review is from: Evolution and Ecology: Essays on Social Transformation (Hardcover)
Largely regarded as the founder of Cultural Ecology, Julian Steward's theory strived to bridge the gap between human cultural adaptations and the physical environment. His "Essays on Social Transformation" are an essential addition to any social science library, and an intellectual touchstone for those interested in human adaptation. The editor, himself a student of Steward's, provides an insightful introduction to both Steward's life and ethnographic research, while allowing the greater corpus of the text to "speak for itself." The compilation of these essays was also aided by Steward's wife, in mindful appreciation of his work.
