Window on Humanityis a brief introduction to general anthropology. It covers the four subfields  biological anthropology, anthropological archaeology, sociocultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology  as well as anthropologys two dimensions  academic and applied anthropology.  Its shorter length increases instructor's options for assigning additional readingcase studies, readers, and other supplements within a one semester course.Window on Humanitycan also work well in a quarter system, for which traditional texts may be too long. While presenting core concepts and topics, Window also aims to demonstrate anthropologys relevance to the 21st-century world we inhabit. The text aims to instill an appreciation of human diversity, of anthropology as a field, and of how an anthropological approach can build on, and help make sense of, the experience that students bring to the classroom. Chapter 1 - What Is Anthropology?
