History of Anthropological Theory

This overview of the history of anthropological theory provides a comprehensive history from antiquity through the 21st century, with a focus on the 20th century and beyond. Unlike other volumes, it also offers a four field introduction to theory. As a standalone text, or used in conjunction with the companion volume "readings for history of anthropological theory, third edition," Erickson and Murphy offer a comprehensive, affordable, and contemporary introduction to anthropological theory. The third edition has been updated and fully revised throughout to closely parallel the presentation in the companion reader, making it easier to use both books in tandem. New original essays by contemporary theorists bring the series to life, and portraits of important theorists make it a handsome volume. Sources and suggested readings have been updated, and glossary definitions have been updated, streamlined, and standardized. -- Back cover.
