ISBN: 9780521192606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents an interdisciplinary study of the role of spirituality and religious ritual in the emergence of complex societies.

Reading the Past
ISBN: 9780521821322 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

While remaining centered on the importance of meaning, agency and history, the authors explore the latest developments in post-structuralism, neo-evolutionary theory and phenomenology. Previous Edition...

The Archaeology of Contextual Meanings
ISBN: 9780521106405 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This companion volume to Archaeology as Long-term History focuses on the symbolism of artefacts.

Theory and Practice in Archaeology
ISBN: 9781138155794 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this latest collection of his articles, of which seven are written especially for this volume, Ian Hodder captures and continues the lively controversy of the 1980s over symbolic and structural approaches to archaeology. The book acts as an overview of the developments in the discipline over the last decade; yet Hodder's brief is far wider. His aim is to break down the division between the intellectual and the "dirt" archaeologist to demonstrate that in this discipline more than any other, theory must be related to practice to save effectively our rapidly diminishing heritage.

In China's Image: Chinese Self-Perception in Western Thought
ISBN: 9780333917954 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book questions our perceptions of China. It is argued that what is commonly understood to be 'China' is, in large part, a collage of images. These images - created and manipulated by individuals and groups within the boundaries of the Chinese state in order to pursue their own social, economic and political ambitions - have been accepted, elaborated upon, strengthened and made legitimate by European and American social scientists and by other professional commentators on China. If shaped or strongly conditioned by these images, policies towards China are likely to prove either...
