A reference tool for any teacher of Anthropology. Unique in focus and content, this book focuses on the how of teaching anthropology across all of its sub-fieldsCultural-Social, Biological, Archaeology, and Linguistics (and their two dimensions: research and applied studies)and to provide a wide array of associated learning outcomes and student activities.
