Reddit reviews Anthropology: What Does It Mean to Be Human?

I am currently advocating to my college to change the Intro to ANthropology book to this one. It is a textbook and it might be on the expensive side, but it has a chapter that is great on Economic Anthropology.

I would suggest the following:

The world of goods: towards an anthropology of consumption

The full book of "Theory in economic anthropology" edited by Jean Ensminger. -- this one's an introduction book-- Here's a chapter

Another Economic Anthropology guidebook: Economies and Culture (Wilk and Cliggett 2007)


Richard Lee's and Marshall Sahlin's work, including "Stone Age Economics" (Sahlins, 1972)

I don't know about online resources on anthropology.
