eBook: Routledge Encyclopedia of Social and Cultural Anthropology

The updated second edition of the Routledge Encyclopedia of Social and Cultural Anthropology (2010) has been added to our Credo database. Made up of lengthy entries on subjects in anthropology and ethnology, the updated edition expands content related to gender and sexuality, international anthropological traditions, and globalization. Entries include cross-references and recommendations for further reading. Aesthetics, capitalism, civil society, counterinsurgency, divination, literacy, and relativism are among the subjects covered. Short biographies and definitions are also included.

The Credo database is a collection of online reference works covering many disciplines: art, business, history, language, literature, philosophy, psychology, religion, science, social science, and technology. You can find it on the Library's Databases Page.
