Tracing the developmental cycle of families in a wide range of times and places, Stevan Harrell shows how family members in different societies must cooperate to perform various activities and thus organize themselves in particular ways. Within six major divisions, the book describes families in nomadic bands, traditional African societies, Polynesian and Micronesian societies, native societies of the Pacific Northwest coast, preindustrial class societies, and modern industrial societies. Within each group, the authors copious examples demonstrate the variation from one family system to another. His case studies are clearly illustrated with a unique set of diagrams that allow comparison of complex groups and of family processes extending over a generation. Scholars and advanced students alike will find this ambitious book an invaluable resource. 410 0$aSocial change in global perspective. 606 $aFamilies$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aKinship$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aSocial structure$vCross-cultural studies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFamilies 615 0$aKinship 615 0$aSocial structure 676 $a306.85 700 $aHarrell$b Stevan$0845286 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910305554003321 996 $aHuman families$91965106 997 $aUNINA
