Cultural Anthropology/Textbooks

One of the requirements of the Open Course Library project was that students could not spend more than $30 on materials. While I chose to use Spradley and McCurdy's Conformity and Conflict reader, there are a number of textbooks that are available online that meet this requirement (available on CourseSmart).
