OK, I read this back in the day when it was brand new, on the recommendation of a friend who was a young anthropologist. It's an enjoyable and thoughtful work of what we might call meta-anthropology.
Not technical enough for an academic audience, not accessible enough for a lay audience. No index, despite endnotes and a bibliography.
