In studying the Arapesh culture in the East Sepik province of New Guinea, anthropologist Margaret Mead addressed, in depth, such topics as betrothal and marriage customs, sexuality, gender roles, diet, religion, arts, agriculture, rites of passage, the roles of parents, and attitudes towards property; her papers were originally published in Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1938 through 1940. For this volume, a new introduction by Paul B. Roscoe (anthropology, U. of Maine) addresses the importance of Mead's work in light of modern research, how this work fits into her own body of writings, and some of his own findings that clarify some ambiguous points. The book includes 96 b&w illustrations. Annotation c. Book News, Inc.,Portland, OR
