1 MEAD, MARGARET Blackberry winter. My earlier years.
London Angus and Robertson 1981 0207142882 / 9780207142888 Soft Cover 
309 pages, illustrations, pictorial wraps, very good. From the dj, 'Dr. Margaret Mead, one of the world's foremost anthropologists, relates here the events of her life up to World War Two and the effects each of her remarkable experiences had on her. The seeds of her lifelong career were planted at Barnard College in New York, where she studied under anthropologists Ruth Benedict and Franz Boas. Vividly described are her early field trips - to Samoa, New Guinea, Bali - and the opposition she overcame as a young woman studying alone the native people of the South Pacific, then an activity unprecedented and shocking to many. She also writes with candor about the personal experiences of her childhood, of her adolescence and college days, of her three marriages and of the intricacies of her own motherhood. Dr. Mead's extensive work reflected her interest in the psychology of culture and often dealt with such issues as race, sex and marriage, child rearing, mental health, feminism and education. Here is a self-portrait of a woman who was liberated from convention more than sixty years ago and who lived life to the full until her death in November 1978.

Boston Little, Brown & Company 1975 0316564702 / 9780316564700 First Edition Hardcover Very Good in Poor dust jacket 
Xxxii, 218 pages, well illustrated, cloth, dust jacket frayed otherwise very good. 8 by 11 inches. From the dust jacket: "The combination of America's most eminent anthropologist and a premier photographer is uniquely suited to the task of distilling a clearcut view of the world from the blur of messages man receives about other societies. In WORLD ENOUGH, Margaret Mead and Ken Heyman enable us to view the contemporary world, in all its complexity, diversity, and rich contradiction, by condensing it to manageable size and "sharpening the focus of our eyes and thought. " The subtle interplay of Dr. Mead's anthropological insight and Ken Heyman's one hundred and eighty searching photographs illuminates the individual and collective dilemmas faced by four billion human beings. WORLD ENOUGH is arranged in four parts, in each of which a distinct level of technological and social development on this planet is examined. " FRN8-6 ; 218 pages
