This reader offers 31 original articles, each of which centers on the encounters between an anthropologist and a person from whom the anthropologist has learned something about another culture. In telling the stories of specific individuals, the anthropologist can address a current topic in anthropology by situating it vividly within the lives and worlds of people in a variety of cultural settings.
