• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume discusses an impressive array of cultural influences — not just country of origin, East-West, or collectivism-individualism — but professional and disciplinary cultures, historical changes in cultures, social class, frontier settlement and geographical regions, political cultures, religion, and gender; and advances several new theories about the origins and processes of cultural development, from biological evolution to the division of labour and other aspects of social class.
