Summary: Passing the Torch explores the mentor-student relationship and the way in which anthropology has been passed from one generation to the next. There are many ways in which this process has been followed. A number of them are discussed here, including some non-anthropological examples. Some of the contributors to the volume provide very personal stories of mentoring or being mentored, while others provide classical examples, such as Boas's mentoring of Margaret Mead. This book is useful in teaching about the manner in which anthropology is passed on, and has relevance to the theory of learning.
