  • ANTHROPOLOGY WEB HAWG

    Extensive giude/index to web-based anthropology resources. Excellent advice proferred by the author, Prof. Philip Groth, U-Wisconsin-Rock County..

    "The Web HAWG is an internet jumpstation for Anthropological and Sociological on-line resources. However, all students are cautioned to remember that electronic media, while interesting and exciting forms of technology, are still evolving. The long and the short of it is that there is a lot of "junk" on the Net, some of it with little or no redeeming scholarly value. Internet users must always assess and discern the information, and consider the source. The internet is no substitute for hands-on library research and traditional methods of information gathering and assessment. I expect all my students to make the college library their first and last stop in information gathering."
