What is cultural anthropology

What is cultural anthropology and what are the reasons for it? What do we get out of it? In other words, how is it useful? What can this social science of learning about other societies tell us about ourselves? In your answer, be sure to include real-life examples that you may have experienced, heard, or read about in this course.

(You can use your own innate knowledge, common sense, imagination, and creativity and any readings, I am just looking for a better understanding from someone’s experience of all this – the more info the better so write however much you want to express, it can only help me, thank you)
