An extensive introductory chapter provides a clear account of the main lines of theoretical development within archaeology indicating current areas of debate and controversy. The book is then divided into seven sections each of which is prefaced by an introduction evaluating the nature of the selective contributions in the light of the history of the field. These sections are as follows: cultural ecology; political economy; evolutionary theory; symbolic and structuralist approaches; critical theory; engendering approaches; and archaeology and politics. The book contains 26 substantial readings divided equally between the sections and each prefaced by a headnote.
The book concludes with recommendations for further reading and an index. It will be a vital resource for students and teachers of archaeology throughout the world.
"... by all means adopt this Reader as a text to go with your own reader. Its framework is catholic, broad–ranging and reasonably balanced with respect to developments in archaeological theory over the last two decades."
––Roger C. Green, Dept of Anthropology, University of Auckland
"It is an excellent source for advanced and graduate seminars in archaeological theory. The editors are to be congratulated for completing a monumental and controversial task with such authority and equanimity."
––Patty Jo Watson, Washington University (American Antiquity, 1998)
"Preucel′s and Hodder′s pieces, covering a total of almost 100 pages of text – a small monograph – constitute the real strength of the book. They are humane, intelligent, well–read, balanced and critical guides to the proliferation of processual and interpretive theoretical positions that archaeologists espouse." (Canadian Review of Sociology and Anthropology)
