Anthropology
Browse by
Anthropology studies the human condition globally and cross-culturally, treating our way of life as only one among many. In an increasingly cosmopolitan world, where people from different places and backgrounds frequently interact, anthropology promotes an understanding of human variation. Among its key concepts is that of culture: the patterns of behavior, thought, and feeling that people learn as members of social groups.
