Description:
Melbourne: Penguin, 1979. x, 228pp. Or card. Light stain to edge of rear cover, some minor rubbing. Scarce paperback. Tribal customs, body mutilation, initiation rites, sexual taboos, totemism, symbolic food, myths and ritual- these are some of the cultural traditions of white Australians. The author reverses the traditional western anthropologist's role arguing that the rites typically ascribed to 'blacks' are in fact representative 'rites of passage' shared universally by all humankind... First Edition. Soft Cover. Good Plus. 8vo.
