5.0 out of 5 stars independent thinking in athropology, December 31, 2007
By reader (mountain view, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oh What a Blow That Phantom Gave Me! (Paperback)
I found this book by accident -- it was on a cart at my local bookstore waiting to be shelved. I read it voraciously. I can say that in many ways it changed my life: the story of the new guinea school where mathematics was taught by rote (including errors) caused me to rethink many academic disciplines. The story of the australian teaching eskimos to use a boomerang with the rejoinder "just don't tell any visiting anthropologists where you learned this" caused me to rethink anthropology specifically. Altogether, this book, by a self-proclaimed maverick, broadened my horizons in significant ways. Consider it to be an an exercise in independent thought.
