«Anthropology» is created to be that very starting point in the study of this complex scientific discipline. The 14 chapters of the book cover a wide range of topics: from the way of life and rituals of ancient peoples to the achievements of the newest field — cyborg anthropology. The publication provides a comprehensive overview of anthropology as a science, showing which pressing questions it is capable of answering and what challenges it faces in the near future. The sections of the book contain questions for reflection, as well as numerous interviews with leading anthropologists featuring unique findings and theories formulated in their field studies around the world. The work of Laura Paunty and Tomislav Maric is an ideal introduction to the topic, through which everyone can find the necessary approaches to anthropology and acquire the essential foundational knowledge.
