Anthropology: Appreciating Human Diversity is an introduction to general anthropology. It covers the four subfields - biological anthropology, anthropological archaeology, cultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology, as well as anthropology's two dimensions: academic and applied. While presenting anthropology's core, the text also aims to demonstrate anthropology's relevance to our modern world. The subtitle of the text reflects its goal of instilling a sense of appreciation: (1) of human diversity, (2) of anthropology as a field, and (3) of how anthropology can build on, and help make sense of, the experience that students bring to the classroom.
