Despite the challenges created by COVID-19 this year we have been busy working on a fantastic range of projects that will support teaching and research across all areas of Anthropology. Find out more below, get in touch with our editors, and see the drop-down at the bottom of this page to discover some new releases.

Series Spotlight

We have recently launched a new series: Social Science Perspectives on Childbirth and Reproduction, edited by Robbie Davis-Floyd. Proposals welcome!

  

Author Awards

Queering Knowledge is winner of the 2020 Ruth Benedict Prize for Outstanding Edited Volume. Congratulations to the editors and contributors!

Free Chapter 

You can access a chapter from The Anthropology of Epidemics and Human Extinction and the Pandemic Imaginary for free via the content collection on our coronavirus microsite.

Book reviews

The Melanesian World has received a ‘highly recommended’ review in CHOICE where it is described as “the most important and comprehensive reference published on this region in years”. A paperback edition should be available by the end of the year.

Conferences

We are sorry not to be attending the American Anthropological Association meeting in person this year but will be following the online event.
