More about the book

Using cultural anthropology to analyze debates that reverberate throughout the human sciences, George E. Marcus and Michael M. J.

The result is a provocative work that is important for scholars interested in a critical approach to social science, art, literature, and history, as well as anthropology. This second edition considers new challenges to the field which have arisen since the book's original publication.
