Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A guide to the psychological, social, behavioural and emotional problems created by head injury. It is written in a non-technical, jargon-free style and addresses the medical problems, rehabilitation and adjustment of individuals and families to the realities of life after a head injury. The author's presentation of essential factual information and research enables the reader to gain a greater understanding of head injury, and a number of case histories offer valuable insights into the problem. It offers practical advice to home carers and family members who have to look after a head injury victim; also for the patients themselves, therapists and medical staff. Topics covered include: understanding coma; rehabilitation and recovery; cognitive re-training; managing emotional and behavioural problems; and returning to work and family life. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Occasional Paper No. 44 of the Royal Anthropological Institute Published in association with the Anglo-Finnish Society Westermarck was a remarkable man, but one who has received little credit for the significant part he played in the creation of modern anthropology. He spanned two worlds: the comparative anthropological endeavours of the nineteenth century, and the establishment of social anthropology at the LSE, in which he played a major role. One of Malinowski's principal teachers, he was himself an outstanding fieldworker. His work on Morocco has, even today, hardly been surpassed. Yet, his theories on the nature of human marriage and the origins of the incest taboo place him firmly in the earlier, generalist camp, and the controversies to which they have given rise have hardly settled down to this day. In this volume, Westermarck's place in anthropology is discussed, along with detailed descriptions of his very active academic life in Finland and in Britain, whilst other chapters consider his equally pioneering writings in morals and ethics. Westermarck's own writings are featured by way of illustration of his ideas, including his LSE inaugural lecture, his Huxley lecture, and a hitherto unpublished paper on ritual and survivals. This volume shows, indeed, that Westermarck is a 'missing link' in today's history of anthropology, and our understanding of that history will be profoundly changed by a better appreciation of his role within it.
