Reviews
'It remains one of the benchmark introductions to archaeology. The structure is well thought out, logical and easy to follow. The style is accessible but not patronising, and it manages to make difficult concepts and techniques understandable through clear language and excellent use of examples.' - Bob Johnston, University of Sheffield 'This is an excellent volume, strengthened in its revision and undoubtedly made more attractive by the text boxes and illustrations. In parts the authors achieve heroic levels of comprehensiveness and are to be commended on the enormous number of publications they cite as further reading on the issues raised.' - Muiris O'Sullivan, University College Dublin. 'This remains the best overview of current archaeological practice and its prose is accessib≤ the online resources should appeal to the professional archaeologist who can now download a wealth of advice whilst in the field.' - British Archaeology 'Greene's book is exceptional in its clarity and breadth, and does justice to all aspects of the field of archaeology. It's particular strengths are in its global coverage of archaeological methods and theories and its concern with ethics, field methodology and current innovations...A great volume for any introductory archaeology course for majors or non-majors alike.' - Neil O'Donnell, Canisius, College, Buffalo, New York 'I am convinced more than ever that this is the best book going. It really is the only one that tries to teach the best methodology for excavation; and it covers almost any possible analysis and available technology alternative. It is ideal for our undergraduate method and theory because it really is strong in both and in the best balance. It does a better job of teaching the methodology than any of the other standard texts.' - Glenn Storey, University of Iowa 'The best standard introduction to archaeology.' - Gonzalo Ruiz Zapatero, University of Madrid What readers said about the previous edition: 'Thoroughly recommended ... Shows how archaeology is practised and understood today. I particularly liked the clear diagrams, the extended captions to illustrations and the key references next to each sub-section. the text is clear, interesting and intelligible.' - Mick Aston, University of Bristol 'This blockbuster is my top recommendation for a single-author introduction to archaeology - history, menthod and theory. In it's previous editions Archaeology: AnIntroductionhas always stood apart through its readability and the way the author interprets in his own way the ever-increasing complexity and diversity of the discipline. This new fourth edition is infinitely fuller in detail and as up-to-date as any student or lay reader may wish without sacrificing that attractive clarity and personal presence.' - John Bintliff, University of Leiden 'It has become a classic in the classroom. What makes it that - and even more so in the new edition - is its ability to put the theory and practice of archaeology into an historical perspective, making it comprehensible and readable. A classic has become even better.' - Kristian Kristiansen, University of Gothenburg, Sweden 'It should find a place on every undergraduate's bookshelf, and will also be useful for " A" level and other students who want a good introduction to the subject. It is not only a very good introduction to the theory behind archaeology and its history, but it also provides a good review of archaeological techniques. It is well illustrated throughout, and with easy-to-find references and suggestions for further reading it is the ideal textbook for those at the start of their archaeological careers.' - Francis Pryor, President of the Council for British Archaeology, 'It remains one of the benchmark introductions to archaeology.
