Visions of Culture: An Annotated Reader

Visions of Culture: A Reader, Second Edition, has been revised and expanded with new selections and is coordinated for use with Visions of Culture: An Introduction to Anthropological Theories and Theorists, Fifth Edition. Each selection is prefaced with a brief introduction about the anthropologist and the text. Each primary text is followed by a section titled Queries and Connections, a series of questions designed to help students focus on the central issues in each text and to relate them to other readings.
