Originally published in 1951 this book analyses the social values and institutions involved in the establishment and maintenance of marital relationships. Most of the data is derived from Umor, the largest of the five Yakoe villages. As well as considering the conventions through which mariatal values are expressed, the relation of marital status to the general structure of Yakoe society is also discussed. The book also determines the extent to which the values posited by the Yakoe themselves are actually operative and discusses the changing conditions which have modified traditional standars of marital behaviour.
