Anthropology: the study of man

by E. Adamson Hoebel

What is attempted here is an updated, reasonably consistent, and comprehensive statement of a coherent series of concepts, propositions, and theories about the past and present nature of man, culture, and society supported by factual information from the whole range of anthropology. At the same time, doors are opened and the paths to alternative paths of exploration indicated.
