| • | Anthropology (from the Greek word άνθρωπος, "humane") consists of the study of humankind (see genus Homo). It is holistic in two senses: it is concerned with all humans at all times, and with all dimensions of humanity. A primary trait that traditionally distinguished anthropology from other humanistic disciplines is an emphasis on cross-cultural comparisons. This distinction has, however, become increasingly the subject of controversy and debate, with anthropological methods now being commonly applied in single society/group studies. In the United States, 'anthropology' is traditionally divided into four sub-disciplines: · physical anthropology, which studies primate behavior, human evolution, and population genetics; this field is also sometimes called biological anthropology.
