Now and then a book is written which cuts mercilessly through an
accumulation of traditional conceptions and by the light of
overlooked or misinterpreted facts and common sense shows us how
absurd the orthodox ideas have really been. Such a book is this
volume of Dr. Malinowski's, which brilliantly, concisely, and in
non-technical language demonstrates how very wrong and indeed
impossible are the currently accepted views of some of the
fundamentals of savage life.
