- The bulk of the book is devoted to themes and controversies characteristic of post First World War anthropology, from structural functionalism via structuralism to hermeneutics, cultural ecology and discourse analysis.
- The authors also look at the ambiguous relationship between anthropology and national cultures.
- This is a timely, concise history of a major intellectual discipline, in engaging and thought-provoking narrative that will appeal to students of the discipline world wide.
