j_cheneyI just finished Social& Cultural Anthropology: A Very Short Introduction by John Monaghan and Peter Just. The title is pretty self explanatory.
If you're looking for a quick overview, this is a pretty good one, touching on the major areas of interest for anthropologists. I don't think I learned a great deal from the book, but it served to codify what I already knew, which is always a handy thing to have done for you. (Especially since one of my characters is a student of Divergent Anthropology.)
A good refresher, it lightly touches on each field. Not an in-depth explanation of anything, if that's what you're after.
