Rezension zu „A History of Anthropology “
This is a well written and informative book on a subject of great importance for all social anthropologists. A work which offers a 'sober and balanced account of the historical growth of anthropology'. It certainly deserves to be widely read. -- The European Journal of Developmental Research The authors describe this book as an ambitious but unpretentious attempt to 'cover all the major traditions in social and cultural anthropology'. They achieve this in nine pithy chapters that follow the development of anthropological ideas from the ancient Greeks to the end of the 1990s. -- The Australian Journal of Anthropology
