What's New
Now 13 (vs. 14) chapters. Chapters 7 and 8 have been merged into a single Chapter 7 on Political Systems.
More global examples; new, non-American boxes at the end of chapters (e.g., ethnicity in the former Yugoslavia, and troubles in Swooshland-Nike in Southeast Asia).
Special attention has been paid to Chapter 4 on Language (reduction of the Cyberspace section, additional material on preserving linguistic diversity, more on gender and language), Chapter 6 on Kinship and Marriage (now reorganized with more on extended families and expanded discussion of gay marriage), and Chapter 9 on Religion (more on religion and social control, less evolutionary).
