The Huli Response to Illness
ISBN: 9780521619660 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Dr Frankel's study of the rapid transformation of traditional medical care among the Huli of New Guinea by Western treatments strikingly combines the methods of social anthropology and epidemiology. Until the 1950s the Huli used only their own form of therapy, including symptomatic treatments, specialist surgery and major ritual intended to enlist the support of spirits.

Honor and Grace in Anthropology
ISBN: 9780521619325 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Little has been written about honour in the social sciences and almost nothing about grace.

The essays, half of them historical and half contemporary, deal with different aspects of honor and grace, and the strategies and transactions...
