Brown, Nina, (author,, editor.). McIlwraith, T. F. (Thomas Forsyth), 1899-1964 (author,, editor.). González, Laura Tubelle de, 1969- (author,, editor.). American Anthropological Association, (issuing body.). BCcampus, (distributor.).

Summary: "This textbook is a collection of chapters on the essential topics in cultural anthropology. Different from other introductory textbooks, this book is an edited volume with each chapter written by a different author. Each author has written from their experiences working as an anthropologist and that personal touch makes for an accessible introduction to cultural anthropology. The authors' approach to cultural anthropology is holistic. They see the interconnectedness of cultural practices and, in all of the chapters, they emphasize the comparison of cultures and the ways of life of different peoples."--BCcampus website.
