Excerpt from Growing Up in New Guinea: A Comparative Study of Primitive Education
If a long line of devoted biologists had been breed ing guinea pigs or fruit flies for a hundred years and recording the results, and some careless Vandal burnt the painstaking record and killed the survivors, we would cry out in anger at the loss to science. Yet, when history, without any such set purpose, has presented us with the results of not a hundred years' experiment on guinea pigs, but a thousand years' experiment on human beings, we permit the records to be extinguished with out a protest.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a remarkable study of child development as seen through a unique window: the lives of children brought up in a traditional society on the remote islands and reefs of Manus in the Admiralty Archipelago. The author lived with the Manus for six months, observing the children in their environment â" a society untouched by missionaries or traders and with an economic dependence on the ocean. The result is a detailed record of the child-rearing practices, cultural influences, and philosophies of these people. The author's objective and in-depth analysis sheds light on the importance of cultural norms, parental attitudes, and social expectations in shaping a child's development. This book is a valuable resource for anthropologists, educators, and social workers. It offers fresh insights into the nature of childhood, the process of socialization, and the diversity of human experience. It also highlights the significance of cultural context in understanding child development and provides a unique perspective on the malleability of human nature.
