Summary: Yes, It Was Just a Text Book to Me
Review: I purchased this item because I had to for one of my classes. However, I found it to be a great textbook full of lots of interesting information. Cultural Anthropology is full of great pictures and up to date information. Kottak gives a large perspective to the eyes of the world we live in. There is so much beyond the country we live in, and Kottak shows that quite wel.
It shows the importance of culture and how it is passed from generation to generation. The biggest thing I probably learned from this book is that you are not born with beliefs and culture, it is learned from others.Pros:
Full of information
Well describes cultures around the world
Colorful pictures that fit the topic
Good as a college textbook
Written by an experiences anthropologist Cons:
It was just a textbook to me...
Not exactly entertaining material
