Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Structural anthropology is based on Claude Levi-Strauss''s idea that people think about the world in terms of binary opposites such as high and low, inside and outside, person and animal, life and death and that every culture can be understood in terms of these opposites.

This approach, he felt, made for fresh new ideas.
