Religion: A Humanist Interpretation
ISBN: 9780415128971 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Religion: A Humanist Interpretation represents a lifetime's work on the anthropology of religion from a rather unusual personal viewpoint. Raymond Firth treats religion as a human art, capable of great intellectual and artistic achievements, but also of complex manipulation to serve the human interests of those who believe in it and operate it. His study is comparative, drawing material from a range of religions around the world. Its findings are a challenge to established beliefs.

A Diary in the Strict Sense of the Term
ISBN: 9780804717076 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) When it was first published (in 1967, posthumously), Bronislaw Malinowski's diary, covering the period of his fieldwork in 1914-1915 and 1917-1918 in New Guinea and the Trobriand Islands, set off a storm of controversy. Many anthropologists felt that the publication of the diary-which Raymond Firth describes as -this revealing, egocentric, obsessional document--was a profound disservice to the memory of one of the giant figures in the history of anthropology. Almost certainly never intended to be published, Malinowski's diary was intensely personal and brutally honest. He kept it, he said,...

Capital, Saving and Credit in Peasant Societies
ISBN: 9780202309187 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Contemporary problems of economic and social change have obliged social scientists from different fi elds to learn much about each others' work as well as about the specifi c problems they are together seeking to solve. The bearing of economic conditions on the character of a social system has become more apparent to anthropologists, and, similarly, economists have become more aware of the relevance of social factors to economic decisions. This pioneering book is at the point of contact between these two disciplines, presenting detailed studies from many societies of the interaction between...
