Recenzii
'The essays … are replete with fascinating data that fulfil a central promise of contemporary anthropology … at a time when fewer and fewer detailed ethnographies seem to be published.' Book Review Essays
'Mark this volume as another milestone in the rehabilitation of kinship studies. About the House is a worthwhile collection that both implements and critically evaluates Lévi-Strauss's notion of the 'house society' in studies drawn from Southeast Asia and Amazonia. For both the teacher and the scholar, this book is worth the reading.' Peter Gose, University of Regina
