.,."A necessary purchase for all collections concerned with anthropology. Williams provides summary descriptions of the topical coverage of the journals, in addition to the usual directory information (e.g., editor, publisher, frequency). From this information, a prospective author can determine whether a manuscript will be appropriate for a periodical. Williams also gives printed and online indexing and abstracting detailed for each title--extraordinarily helpful for a discipline with such broad concerns. Four of the five chapters parallel the common subdivisions of anthropology (archaeology, cultural anthropology, linguistics, and physical anthropology), and the fifth covers appropriate indexes and abstracts. There are title, subject, and geographic indexes. This analytic guide could have covered more titles but no one could argue with the appropriateness of the ones it does cover or the accuracy or helpfulness of the information it summarizes.
