PRAISE FOR FIRST EDITION
"Engaging, intelligent, and intellectually generous, Investigating Culture introduces students to cultural anthropology --- and reintroduces all of us to our everyday worlds as seen through ethnographic eyes. Delaney brings together acute observation, revelatory projects, telling and appropriate comparisons, and an imaginative and stimulating range of readings. A book I'm eager to teach!"
Don Brenneis, University of California, Santa Cruz
"A splendid achievement. Carol Delaney has written an absorbing and strikingly original introduction to anthropology. Investigating Culture takes students on a self-reflexive journey around the world and back home again. Courageous, conversational, scholarly, and engaging."
Carol Stack, University of California, Berkeley
