New to this Edition
Three thought-provoking questions begin each chapter and highlight the themes of upcoming content and provoke classroom discussion
"Through the Eyes of Others" essays written by foreign students studying in the US contrast aspects of American culture with practices in their own culture of origin
Recap tables found throughout the text help to visually summarize topics within sections e.g., major theoretical approaches in the history of anthropology, or steps in the scientific method
Key terms are defined in the margins on the pages where the terms are introduced, and at the end of each chapter, a list of those terms cross-references the page where each term is defined
New end-of-chapter "Test Yourself!" sections actively encourage students to apply what they read about in the chapter
Updated "News Briefs" introduce each chapter and show how anthropology attracts public attention and how it relates to contemporary events, issues, and world affairs – stories come from all forms of media (newspapers, magazines, websites, and more)
