Foundations of Anthropological Theory presents a selection of key texts that reflect the broad range of anthropological thought on human behavior, from Herodotus and Ibn Battuta to Adam Smith and Adam Ferguson.

  •  Enables the reader to situate the modern discipline of anthropology within the larger context of intellectual history
  •  Features key texts from the ancient and medieval worlds through to the Enlightenment
  • Considers the presumptive rights of Europeans to judge the inherent moral worth of non-Western civilizations
  • Provides fascinating insights into the ways historians, philosophers, missionaries, and even writers of fiction have made valuable contributions to modern anthropological inquiry
