Book description
What is Anthropology? Why should you study it? What will you learn? And
what can you do with it? "What Anthropologists Do" answers all
these questions and more. Anthropology is an astonishingly diverse and
engaged subject that seeks to understand human social behaviour.
"What Anthropologists Do" presents a lively introduction to
the ways in which anthropology's unique research methods and
cutting-edge thinking contribute to a very wide range of fields:
environmental issues, aid and development, advocacy, human rights,
social policy, the creative arts, museums, health, education, crime,
communications technology, design, marketing, and business. In short, a
training in Anthropology provides highly transferable skills of
investigation and analysis. The book will be ideal for any readers who
want to know what Anthropology is all about and especially for students
