Coles Cultural Anthropology: A Perspective on the Human Condition, fifth Canadian edition at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Cultural Anthropology is a comprehensive core text for students in introductory cultural anthropology courses, introducing the scope, methods, history, and theories of the discipline before moving into central areas of study, including social organization, making a living, worldview, and other key topics. These topics are examined through the lens of the authors' and other researchers' fieldwork experiences, classic and emerging theoretical perspectives, and contemporary Canadian and international examples, providing students with a broad and nuanced understanding.
The fifth Canadian edition has been revised with a focus on readability and conciseness to ensure that the material is accessible for students. The text has been thoroughly updated and includes discussions of contemporary events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement, encouraging students to see the relevance of cultural anthropology to their lives today. The new edition also takes a strong decolonizing perspective, confronting the colonial roots of the discipline, centring the voices of Indigenous scholars, and highlighting topics relevant to Indigenous people in Canada, including linguistic resiliency, governance, and resurgence.
