摘要

Margaret Mead became the best known anthropologist in the United States after the publication of her books Coming of Age in Samoa (1928) and Growing Up in New Guinea (1930). Mandler (modern British history, Univ. of Cambridge) presents a detailed study of Mead's work and the development and application of her anthropological philosophy, focusing on the time between 1939 and 1953-the years between Mead's two periods of fieldwork in New Guinea.
