Summary: This book is a real pleasure...
Comment: ...if you're an academic masochist. I myself had the pleasure of sitting through this entire book for my Anthropology class (yes, I read the entire thing) and it wasn't the most pleasurable experience I've ever had. This book is dry and analytical with not even the occasional quasi-sense of humor that can be found in other school text. Speaking as a student, reading through a chapter took me at least twice as long as reading the same number of pages in other books, and I still had trouble remembering and understanding its concepts. I have to agree with the other reviewers that this book sucks the life out of the study of human beings.

Rating: 4
Summary: Boring but comprehensive
Comment: This is probably THE most boring physical textbook on the market, but it is also the most comprehensive. As an undergrad, I couldn't stay awake through more than a couple of paragraphs at a time. As an anthropologist, I can't think of a better text
to assign to my students. For the serious student, there simply is no way to avoid this book. It set the standard.

Rating: 2
Summary: So unlucky that I have to use this book
Comment: It is the most boring textbook I've ever seen. Too dull that I nearly fall asleep. Luckily my teacher has excellent lecture notes so I can understand the concepts of physical anthropology.
If you are so unlucky that you have to use this book, I can only wish you have a good teacher. God bless you.
