Considerable tension among the subfields has existed within the discipline of anthropology. As a result, some anthropology departments have splintered, and the hallmark "holistic approach" of anthropology has been considered more myth than reality. However, as promoted by the American Anthropological Association and the American Anthropologist for over one hundred years, enhancing the holistic nature of anthropology remains an important and necessary endeavor. This article provides an introduction to this special issue of the American Anthropologist, which focuses on the subfield of biological anthropology. Hopefully, as a result, increased connections among the subfields will be fostered, for the betterment of both biological anthropology and anthropology in general. The underlying theme of this article and the subtext for the entire special issue is clear: Biological anthropology needs anthropology, and anthropology needs biological anthropology.

G. Gunn reviews the book "Lao peasants under socialism" by Grant Evans. Gunn notes that Evans broaches a relatively traditional study of Lao peasant anthropology with the household as the unit of analysis, but, moving beyond ethnography per se, he (Evans) also makes important statements on the wider dimensions of peasant-state relations and human nature as well as engaging broader debates on anthropological theory.
