A few people have been e-mailing me about recommended references sources.
One good on-line source is the MIT encyclopedia of Culture, Cognition and
Evolution, edited by Sperber and Hirschfeld. It has excellent summaries of
research, and key texts. The encyclopaedia is not yet in paper format, it
will be out in May 1999 ($149). Online version is free, and available for
consultation now at
http://mitpress.mit.edu/MITECS/culture.html
