ISBN10: 0942299388, ISBN13: 9780942299380, [publisher: Zone Books] Softcover First Edition Essays that span the career of a prominent anthropologist and address the fundamental questions of the field.Culture in Practice collects the academic and political writings from the 1960s through the 1990s of anthropologist Marshall Sahlins.
