University of Toronto Press Through the Lens of Anthropology
Through the Lens of Anthropology is a concise introduction to anthropology that uses the twin themes of food and sustainability to illustrate the connected nature of the discipline’s many subfields. Beautifully illustrated throughout, with over 150 full-color images, figures, feature boxes, and maps, this is an anthropology book with a fresh perspective, a lively narrative, and plenty of popular topics. The new edition enhances the food and sustainability focus and builds a stronger narrative voice with extended examples and case studies. An entirely new section on decolonization, more Indigenous content, and updated material on biological anthropology make the second edition even more relevant for those interested in learning more about the discipline of anthropology.

University of Toronto Press Forgotten Things: The Story of the Seymour Valley Archaeology Project
Based on a long-term archaeology project, Forgotten Things provides an account of working with field school students to discover and excavate archaeological sites, including early twentieth-century Japanese camps, in the Seymour Valley of British Columbia. The first book in the new Teaching Archaeology series, Forgotten Things gives students a real-world example of archaeological research in practice. It provides an overview of the Seymour Valley ArchaeologyProject from the initial phone call to the disposition of artifacts and archiving of records. The book takes the reader from the inception of the project through fieldwork, laboratory work, drawing inferences, and making the research meaningful. It delves into considerations that guide research design and methods, and it examines the culture of archaeological fieldwork. Through anecdotes, stories from the field, and extracts from field notes, Forgotten Things offers rare insight into the realities of archaeological research not often seen in archaeological studies.
