Reflecting contemporary anthropological interest in material culture studies, \u003ci\u003eAnthropology of Tobacco \u003c\/i\u003emakes the plant the centre of its own contentious, global story in which, instead of a passive commodity, tobacco becomes a powerful player in a global adventure involving people, corporations and public health. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBringing together a range of perspectives from the social and natural sciences as well as the arts and humanities, \u003ci\u003eAnthropology of Tobacco\u003c\/i\u003e weaves stories together from a range of historical, cross-cultural and literary sources and empirical research. These combine with contemporary anthropological theories of agency and cross-species relationships to offer fresh perspectives on how an apparently humble plant has progressed to world domination, and the consequences of it having done so. It also considers what needs to happen if, as some public health advocates would have it, we are seriously to imagine 'a world without tobacco'. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book presents students, scholars and practitioners in anthropology, public health and social policy with unique and multiple perspectives on tobacco-human relations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Russell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367709457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367709457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.79d","brand":"Andrew Russell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443430469887,"sku":"9780367709457","price":57.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_28601583-127a-46b1-93fb-c6a8bade1a47.jpg?v=1777205476","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/anthropology-of-tobacco-andrew-russell-9780367709457","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
