Synopsis
Culture in Practice collects the academic and political writings from the 1960sthrough the 1990s of anthropologist Marshall Sahlins. More than a compilation, Culture in Practiceunfolds as an intellectual autobiography. The book opens with Sahlins's early general studies ofculture, economy, and human nature. It then moves to his reportage and reflections on the war inVietnam and the antiwar movement, the event that most strongly affected his thinking about culturalspecificity. Finally, it offers his more historical and globally aware works on indigenous peoples,especially those of the Pacific islands.Sahlins exposes the cultural specificity of the West,developing a critical account of the distinctive ways that we act in and understand the world. Thebook includes a play/review of Robert Ardrey's sociobiology, essays on "native" consumption patternsof food and clothes in America and the West, explorations of how two thousand years of Westerncosmology affect our understanding of others, and ethnohistorical accounts of how cultural orders ofEuropeans and Pacific islanders structured the historical experiences of both. Throughout, Sahlinsoffers his own way of thinking about the anthropological project. To transcend critically our nativecategories in order to understand how other peoples have historically constructed their modes ofexistence--even now, in the era of globalization--is the great challenge of contemporaryanthropology.

    Immediate shipping!  This excellent book was carefully wrapped in a Saran type plastic material for moisture protection.  The book was then placed in a strong, appropriately sized cardboard box for safe, secure mailing.  It arrived in perfect condition, exactly as depicted and described.  A great price for this edition.  The entire transaction was smooth and professional.  I would definitely purchase from this true five star plus seller again.  Thank you!

    Impeccable. Absolutely impeccable! What a bookseller! As a student, I find this seller a godsend. Many old books, but books well cared for! It’s certainly evident they know how to care for books and have much experience when it comes to helping the world at large find life changing books! What help for the soul! The shipping and handling and the packaging is always professionally done. The items have practically always been nicer than described. So the value is great! I am exceedingly pleased!

    I am Extremely happy with my purchase and this seller! I will Definitely be adding more to my book collection in the future with them! The shipping was very quick; it was packaged very securely where it was protected well. The description was perfect, and the value is incredible for these older books, some very rare I saw, and to be able to come to eBay and find what I was looking for, with such great quality, was pleasantly surprising. More than fair in their offers! I Highly Recommend!!!
