Autor Marshall Sahlinsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 1972
The book examines notions of production, distribution and exchange in early communities and examines the link between economics and cultural and social factors.

Recenzii
'Sahlins’ forays into economic anthropology are full of interest.' - Cyril S. Belshaw, American Anthropologist
'The most sophisticated, extensive presentation, and argument in and about, the field of economic anthropology' - Walter C. Neale, Science
'This book is subversive to so many of the fundamental assumptions of Western technological society that it is a wonder it was permitted to be published. Calling on extensive research among the planet's remaining stone-age societies—in Africa, Australia and South-East Asia as well as anecdotal reports from early explorers, Professor Sahlins directly challenges the idea that Western civilization has provided greater 'leisure' or 'affluence,' or even greater reliability, than 'primitive' hunter-gatherers.' - Whole Earth Review
'So rich in factual evidence and in ideas that a brief review cannot do it justice' - E. Evans-Pritchard, Times Literary Supplement
'If our species is to survive, we’re going to have to come up with a new economic discipline which starts from very different questions ... there is perhaps no single work of anthropology that so lends itself to this task as Stone Age Economics.' - David Graeber, London School of Economics, UK
