About this ebook

Provide a dialogue in your classroom using Robbins' unique CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY: A PROBLEM-BASED APPROACH, 6e. Using a hands-on, participatory, active-learning approach that encourages critical thinking and discussion, this leading brief text introduces key research problems studied by anthropologists. Within the book's engaging narrative, author Richard Robbins teaches students to analyze their own culture 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 concern, 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 students' exposure to anthropology.
