Publisher's Synopsis
Newly available in paper, the Atlas of World Cultures is the ultimate resource for locating the myriad of cultures described in the ethnographic literature. The heart of the Atlas is a set of 40 maps which physically locate over 3500 groups, tribes or peoples. Through a comprehensive index and 1250 item bibliography it enables the reader to place some of the classic literature on each of these groups. Cross-references to listings of the cultures in the Human Relations Area Files and Murdock′s Outline of World Cultures provide other keys to learning more about a particular culture.
