Includes chapters on the newest, most ground-breaking issues facing the study of culture: Unpacks the origins of where culture comes from Discusses the history of culture and modern-day laboratory studiesExplains how culture shapes the brain (and how the brain changes culture)Describes cultural change in the era of globalization
