　　Cameron M. Smith’s fascination with humanity was sparked on a

1984 trip to Mexico’s Maya ruins; by 1987, he was a student of both

Harvard University’s early human archaeology field school at

Kenya’s Leakey research station and the University of London’s

Institute of Archaeology. He then went to Durham University in

northern England for a Joint Honours BA in Anthropology &

Archaeology, followed by an MA in Anthropology at Portland State

University (in Portland, Oregon) and a PhD from Canada’s Simon

Fraser University.

　　Since 2002, Dr. Smith has taught a wide variety of courses as an

Adjunct Associate Professor at Portland State University’s

Department of Anthropology; he has also taught at Washington State

University and Linfield College.

　　Dr. Smith’s scientific works have been published in journals such

as the American Journal of Physical Anthropology and the Journal of

Field Archaeology and books published by International Monographs

in Prehistory and Oxford’s British Archaeology Reports. His

research has been supported by the National Endowment for the

Humanities and the National Science Foundation-funded Barrow Arctic

Science Consortium.

　　Reaching out from the academic world, Dr. Smith has written

popular-science articles for Scientific American MIND, Archaeology,

Playboy, Spaceflight, Skeptical Inquirer, South American Explorer,

The Next Step, Cultural Survival Quarterly, The Bulletin of

Primitive Technology, and other magazines. Anthropology For Dummies

is Dr. Smith’s second book. His first, written with Charles

Sullivan, was The Top Ten Myths About Evolution (Prometheus,

2006).
