And what will you learn that will equip you to enter working life? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book describes what studying anthropology actually means in practice, and explores the many career options available to those trained in anthropology.

This accessible book presents a lively introduction to the ways in which anthropology's unique research methods and conceptual frameworks can be employed in a very wide range of fields, from environmental concerns to human rights, through business, social policy, museums and marketing. This updated edition includes an additional chapter on anthropology and interdisciplinarity. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is an essential primer for undergraduates studying introductory courses to anthropology, and any reader who wants to know what anthropology is about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVeronica Strang\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Anthropology and the Director of the Institute of Advanced Study at Durham University, and is affiliated to the School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography at Oxford University.
