Recenzii

Although there are several anthropological textbooks on Native Americans, a collection discussing contemporary sociological issues for classroom use is sorely missing. Champagne and Johnson are addressing this lack. In their two-volume collection of essays, the editors are providing a broad range of topics facing Native American communities at this time.
These two volumes (with Contemporary Native American Political Issues, ed. Johnson) succeed in conveying the complexity of Native American needs and the cultural context in which they are embedded.
