Once again, my thanks to Lorenz at antropologi.info for highlighting some important news, this time concerning the publication (and reviews) of Jack Goody’s The Theft of History. I will just post some links here for the reader to explore further, those links derived from “Jack Goody: ‘The West has never been superior’“:

The direct link would be to got to thememorybank.co.uk and read yesterday’s entry.
He doesn’t shill technology or” brands” but he still manages to be a pretty damn good anthropologist. You know, someone who remains focused on what we should be doing for our discipline and not our selves. (that put in my most obnoxious, sneery tone).
