Product Description
Seeing Anthropology continues to be the only cultural anthropology text available that allows for easy integration of ethnographic films into the introductory cultural anthropology course. This text truly incorporates films within the text by blending textbook content with sixteen ethnographic film clips that are put in the hands of students. One reviewer says, “The greatest strengths of this text are its unique and skillful use of film clips to enhance student learning…I can think of no better way to extend student learning in anthropology than the use of films.”

I took several of Dr. Heider's classes while attending the University of South Carolina. I still look back on his courses as the highlight of my academic career. I remember some of the films from my university days and have been searching for them since. The book is structured well, explores a variety of topics, and expertly weaves a discussion of the films included into the chapters of the book. I have long since graduated but enjoy reading this book and watching the films just to get re-engaged with cultural anthropology.

This is an excellent text. Any professor searching for a Cultural Anthropology text needn't look any further. Heider presents the material in a very interesting, concise, and very clear way. Heider clearly illustrates the holistic approach to anthropology and explores that avenue in an exciting way.
