"Geographically and topically diverse, the Spindler series has enriched the study of cultural anthropology and the social sciences for countless undergraduate and graduate students. More than 200 ethnographies have been published through the years, many of which have become classics in the field. And as the world continues to evolve into a global community, the more recent studies in the series provide not only readable, informative ethnographic treatments of the world's cultures but also discussions of their interactions and the consequent changes that ensue.
