What are some good books to read within the Anthropology Discipline?

Question

Besides the all-inclusive textbooks?

Answer 1

Right now I am reading "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jared Diamond. Go to your library and read it too! It's about the history of everything and how we have interpreted it with archaeology etc. and why in modern times societies are still so varied... i am making it sound boring probably but I promise it is not.

Answer 2

Answer 4

The Evolution of Culture

The Predicament of Culture

Answer 5

Ya, what the chick with the rack (avatar) said... "guns, germs and steel" by Jared Diamond is a great basis for anthropology.

I also recommend "Steps to an Ecology of Mind" by Gregory Bateson.  

If you want to get into ethnography's (cultural/applied anthropology) then read the work of Bronislaw Malinowski.
