Description

Anthropology A Beginner's Guide by Joy Hendry and Simon Underdown explores the origins of humanity and the fabric of human society through the discipline of anthropology. This insightful guide delves into fascinating case studies and discoveries, shedding light on human behaviours and beliefs. From our evolutionary ancestors to our responses to globalization, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to understanding the world as an anthropologist would - in all its diversity and commonality. By examining various aspects of human culture and society, Hendry and Underdown debunk old-fashioned ideas about "race" and reveal new insights into how witchcraft has been used to justify misfortune. Through engaging case studies and thought-provoking discussions, this beginner's guide offers a fresh perspective on the complexities of human existence.
