The Encyclopaedia of Anthropology in seven volumes deals with the nature and position of anthropology as a subject among various fields like culture, social, political, cognitive, genetic, philosophy and peace etc. It explains its development, theoretical orientation and methods, its social and cultural backgrounds, fundamental concepts, civilization, kinship system etc. The science of anthropology grows as members of previously non-participating cultures come to share in the gathering and interpretation of data, the building theory. We learn objectivity by studying other peoples gain insight by the studies that others make of us and achieve responsibility by applying the results of our rapidly changing, evolving world. Each volumes in this encyclopaedia brings together significant contributions with some aspect of a science that is increasingly complex, vital and related to the future.
