5 out of 5 stars Provocative   February 21, 2004

This is an ambitious book that pushes the paradigm of anthropology beyond its more traditional study of a people's way of interpreting the world. Liu connects the epistemological project of culture to questions of ontology, and in so doing, explodes the possiblities of ethnology. He also neatly synthesizes a great deal of contemporary philosophical and anthropological thought in the process. For thinking readers.
