Reviews about Cultural Anthropology (6th Edition) (7):
Arador
This text is great for an overall view of anthropology and how it relates to today. Classmates are able to have great discussions about how we see cultures today and changes, or very little change, has come along through the centuries. Other college professors would probably find this a good one to use.

A lot of writing and underlining in the book, in pen and pencil. False to the advertised product. Great price!
This book was in good condition and it arrived promptly. It met my expectations. All other websites posted this book for much more. I was pleased with my find.
