Description:... This book is for students of Asia. It takes mainstream anthropological themes on kinship, the economy or gender and examines them through the available empirical material on Asian cultures and societies provided by anthropologists, sociologists, and others.To be comprehensive would be to be encyclopedic, but that would have defeated the purpose of 'Asia's Cultural Mosaic' which is to introduce readers to Asia from an anthropological point of view.
