In Elsie Clews Parsons, Desley Deacon reconstructs Parsons's efforts to overcome gender biases in both academia and society. "Wonderfully illuminating. . . . Parsons's work resonates strikingly to current trends in anthropology."-George W. Stocking, Jr., Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute "This is the biography of a woman so interesting and effective-a cross between Margaret Mead and Georgia O'Keeffe. . . . A nuanced portrait of this vivid woman."-Tanya Luhrmann, New York Times Book Review "A marvelous new book about the life of Elsie Clews Parsons. . . . It's as though she is sitting on the next rock, a contemporary struggling with the same issues that confront women today: how to combine work, love and child-rearing into one life."-Abigail Trafford, Washington Post "Parsons's splendid life and work continue to illuminate current puzzles about acculturation and diversity."-New Yorker 410 0$aWomen in culture and society. 606 $aWomen anthropologists$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aWomen social scientists$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aFeminists$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aFeminism$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aSex role$zUnited States$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xIntellectual life$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations 607 $aUnited States$xSocial conditions 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen anthropologists 615 0$aWomen social scientists 615 0$aFeminists 615 0$aFeminism$xHistory. 615 0$aSex role$xHistory. 676 $a301/.092 676 $aB 700 $aDeacon$b Desley$0801514 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455277903321 996 $aElsie Clews Parsons$92116481 997 $aUNINA
