The only textbook-video package for cultural anthropology. This text truly incorporates films within the text. This unique package allows the student to view the films in class or at home. Each copy of the book is packaged with a one-hour videotape including clips from fifteen ethnographic films. One reviewer says, The greatest strengths of this text are its unique and skillful use of film clips to enhance student learning I can think of no better way to extend student learning in anthropology than the use of films, and there is no one more qualified to select and present anthropological films than the author of this book.
