"Anthropology and Global History: From Tribes to the Modern World-System explains
the origin and development of human societies and cultures from their earliest beginnings
to the present through an anthropological lens, also drawing from the findings of
diverse social sciences, including sociology, economics, political science, history,
and ecological and religious studies. It uses a "World-System" theoretical framework
derived from the work of anthropologist Eric Wolf, sociologist Immanuel Wallerstein,
and diverse other social scientists. Given the central place of theory in any credible
and productive reconstruction of world history, balance is achieved by integrating
intriguing but also relevant detailed and dramatic illustrations of the more general
flow of history."
