Hunter-Gatherers : An Interdisciplinary Perspective (Biosocial Society Symposium Series)
Editorial Reviews
Review
'... a splendid volume, which is both useful for specialists and accessible to anthropology students and general academic readers.' Anthropos
Book Description
Analyses of the ecology, biology and society of past and present-day hunter-gatherers are at the core of this interdisciplinary volume. Since the seminal work of Man the Hunter in 1968, new research in these three areas has become increasingly specialized, and the lines of communication among academic disciplines have all but broken down. This volume aims to reestablish an interdisciplinary debate, presenting critical issues commanding an ongoing interest in hunter-gatherer research, covering the evolution and history, demography, biology, technology, social organization, art, and language of diverse groups. As a reference text, this book will be useful to scholars and students of social anthropology, archaeology, biological anthropology, and human sciences.
