Essays on the History of American Anthropology

Omschrijving

The critique of twentieth-century American anthropology often portrays anthropologists of the past as servants of colonialism who "extracted" information from indigenous peoples and published works causing them harm. Herbert S. Lewis recovers the reality of the first century of American anthropology as a vital scholarly discipline that rejected established ideas of race, insisted on the value of very different ways of life, and delivered irreplaceable ethnographic studies. This volume presents powerful refutations of the accumulated damaging myths about anthropology's history.
