Rarely do science and literature come together in the same book. When they do -- as in Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, for example -- they become classics, quoted and studied by scholars and the general public alike.</P>
Margaret Mead accomplished this remarkable feat not once but several times, beginning with Coming of Age in Samoa. It details her historic journey to American Samoa, taken where she was just twenty-three, where she did her first fieldwork. Here, for the first time, she presented to the public the idea that the individual experience of developmental stages could be shaped by cultural demands and expectations. Adolescence, she wrote, might be more or less stormy, and sexual development more or less problematic in different cultures. The "civilized" world, she taught us had much to learn from the "primitive." Now this groundbreaking, beautifully written work as been reissued for the centennial of her birth, featuring introductions by Mary Pipher and by Mead's daughter, Mary Catherine Bateson.</P>

point:,性别角色的形成与生物性联系极少，它是文化的产物，也就是说人的生物性不能决定一个人的命运，性别角色取决于文化而非自然的选择。这也为20世纪中叶逐渐盛行的女权主义运动提供了理论基础。
评分两个字：胡扯
评分萨摩亚岛上小朋友的青春期比我们的轻松的多，但是以后我教育小朋友的时候如果用萨摩亚人那一套，小朋友会无法生存在我们所处的世界里
评分就算错误百出。。。但此书真是证明了人类学是个主观学科，更加接近社科而非科学，想写啥就写啥，自由空间蛮大。
评分Beautiful book written by a 24-year-old! In many ways, Mead's problems are still our problems, her proposals still relevant today. Yet it's hard to imagine a book like this being published today. Anthropology has become far more sophisticated in dealing with alterity but the flip side is the repression of an earlier, more speculative, impulse.
