5.0 out of 5 stars An awakener from Anthropology, February 2, 2002
A classic of 20th Century intellectual creativity, that has been recognized as such, but that has not yet received the full attention it deserves. It has momentarelly be dispensed of as "old fashioned", when social sciences based on neuro-sciences has clearly not yet integrated the vast webb of implications the formulations of this volume generate.
An absolute must, even - or because - many formulations are arguable. It is not a book that proposes conclusions, but awakens our intelligence.

4.0 out of 5 stars a classic, boring book, January 23, 2009
By J. Shepard "Appalachian Dancer" (Southwest Virginia, Virginia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Don't read this book for pleasure. Only read it if you have to. It's useful if you have a good reason to read it.
