National Geographic People of the World: Cultures and Traditions, Ancestry and Identity

This book contains great information about human geography around the world. It’s great for students taking a geography and cultures class.

This is a beautiful, well crafted book. Any history buff or someone who just likes coffee table type books should love it.

Where are the amazing photos of people?I remember a National Geographic growing up with photos, I thought this book would be amazing to show my kids the faces of people from all the countries of the world, nope. I bought the other version of this as well and still nope. I'll leave the same review for the other version.

This is the best edition by far of the three that National Geographic has put out on this topic. Each culture is illustrated with a photo, and there are additional sections on genealogy, genetic groups, group migrations, and ethnic-identity testing. The timely intro reminds us that Earth's billions share an interrelated past...and future.

The item received was exactly as described.

Considering the vast number of cultural differences of people in the world, this broad, beautifully photographed and documented bookis full of concise descriptions and to the point analysis of current influences on people and their communities.

This book is really amazing. It tells about so many different cultures and races even I never knew many of them.

Love it! Thank you!

Disappointing, a little on old tradition but nothing on current practices. E.g. in Eritrea young people avoid eye contact with elders as a sign of respect. You'd think there would a little on polite customs when in that country.

Haven’t read the book yet but it looks interesting. Gave it 3 stars because it’s supposed to be a new book but the seem of the book is damaged on the first and page and last.
