It is becoming an axiom in anthropology that what is needed is not discursive treatment of large subjects but the minute discussion of special themes, not a ranging at large over the peoples of the earth past and present, but a detailed examination of limited areas. | KINSHIP ORGANISATIONS AND GROUP MARRIAGE IN AUSTRALIA BY NORTHCOTE W.
