Anthropology in Arabic

As is true of many fields of academic study, there are Arabic introductions to the subjects. Many of these are little more than perfunctory translations of English-language textbooks. For a refreshing Arabic text introducing the whole field of Anthropology to Arabic readers, there is now an online work in progress by Saad Sowayan at http://www.saadsowayan.com/articles/anthropology.html.

Here is The Table of Contents
