Window on Humanity is a brief introduction to general anthropology. It covers the four subfields – biological anthropology anthropological archaeology sociocultural anthropology and linguistic anthropology – as well as anthropology’s two dimensions – academic and applied anthropology. Its shorter length increases instructors options for assigning additional reading—case studies readers and other supplements within a one semester course. Window on Humanity can also work well in a quarter system for which traditional texts may be too long. While presenting core concepts and topics Window also aims to demonstrate anthropology’s relevance to the 21st-century world we inhabit. The text aims to instill an appreciation of human diversity of anthropology as a field and of how an anthropological approach can build on and help make sense of the experience that students bring to the classroom.
