Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Engaging . . . a fine biography that gets beyond the public icon to a portrait of the real woman.Chicago Sun-Times At the age of twenty-three, in the 1920s, Margaret Mead traveled alone to the South Sea and wrote of adolescent sexuality and guilt-free love in her now classic Coming of Age in Samoa. For the next half-century, Mead would act as a powerful participant and opinion maker in the largest issues of her time: culture and religion, education and child rearing, sex and freedom, world hunger, war, and the politics of peace. Outrageous and extravagant, Mead was, in every sense of the word, spirited. Friendships and families of many kinds were at the core of her personal life, and she was both loyal and demanding with people, always challenging them to move in new directions. An inveterate world traveler, a teacher at Columbia University, and curator of The Museum of Natural History, Mead wrote thirty-four books, made ten films, and was granted twenty-eight honorary degrees and numerous awards. This intimate and fascinating story is an astonishing record of the personal and scientific life of an extraordinary human being.Praise for Margaret MeadMead was, as Miss Howards abundantly and unfailing lively account shows, a very American individual. . . . Miss Howard writes not as an anthropologist but as the superb reporter she is.The Wall Street JournalA triumph of industry, imagination, and literary grace.The Washington Post Howard's definitive biography of the woman who was one of the giants of the 20th century covers Mead's professional accomplishments, three marriages, intense friendships, and groundbreaking travels. 16-page photograph insert.
