Description
Provide a dialogue within your classroom using Robbins’ unique CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY: A PROBLEM BASED APPROACH, Fifth Edition. This leading brief text introduces key research problems studied by anthropologists using a hands-on, participatory, active-learning approach that encourages critical thinking and discussion. Within the book’s engaging narrative, author Richard Robbins teaches students to analyze their own cultures as a basis for understanding the cultures of others. Presentations are organized around research problems rather than topics, creating a natural, integrated discussion of traditional concerns, such as kinship, caste, gender roles, and religion. Students explore these subjects within the context of meaningful questions. The text’s brief length and manageable cost provide the flexibility to add original research or ethnographies to enrich your students’ exposure to anthropology. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.
