Farrah Jarral continues to tell the intriguing and unexpected story of anthropology.

In this second omnibus edition, Farrah investigates the tangled history of anthropologists during times of war, she hears how anthropology suffered a crisis of conscience as colonialism came to an end, and how some anthropologists responded by getting much more involved in the lives of those they were studying. She meets anthropologists helping businesses understand how their products and services might fit into our lives, and speaks to anthropologists studying animals, cyborgs, cheese and even alien life. And as she catches up on what she calls her own favourite 'modern ethnographic masterpiece', The Only Way Is Essex, Farrah concludes by reflecting on how the success of the ideas and methodology of anthropology make it less visible as a distinct discipline.
