**Intact Gift Giving Condition book**

We are delighted to bring to you this novel textbook, a collection of chapters on the essential topics in cultural anthropology. Welcome to the second edition of Perspectives and Open Access Anthropology! Different from other introductory textbooks, this book is an edited volume with each chapter written by a different author. Each author has written from their experiences working as an anthropologist and that personal touch makes for an accessible introduction to cultural anthropology.
