"In a collection of papers spanning
some 20 years of work, Steward argues persuasively that cultural change
consists of complex, continuing processes, rather than isolable acts or
events of unitary character ('diffusion' versus 'independent invention')....
With the increasing preponderance of studies of cultural change in archaeology
as well as anthropology this volume assumes as much importance for the prehistorian
as for the student of contemporary societies."
