Review: "Peoples and Cultures of the World"

DateSunday, October 25, 2009 at 01:43PM | AuthorRay Sawhill

Peoples and Cultures of the World (The Great Courses) Peoples and Cultures of the World by Edward Fischer

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Edward Fischer's Teaching Company lecture series is more of an introduction to the academic field of anthropology than it is to the facts of different cultures. Plus it zooms off into naive politics. Listening to it reminded me of taking anthro classes back in the '70s, and I don't mean that as a compliment. One of my least-happy Teaching Company experiences.
