Larsen (anthropology, Ohio State U.) presents an introductory college textbook emphasizing the theme of understanding science--what it is, how it is done, and how anthropologists learn about the natural world. He explains who humans are as organisms, their evolution over millions of years, and the future of the species. He begins with the present record of primate and human evolution as a means to understand the past, covered in the second part. He emphasizes hypothesis testing and demonstrates how problems are examined through fieldwork and lab investigations. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
