"Describing the second stage of Karl G. Heider's exploration of
emotion as understood by the Minangkabau - a matrilineal, Moslem
society of West Sumatra, Indonesia - this book uses semi-structured
interviews with focus groups and individuals to allow emotions to
lead us into the broader realm of Minangkabau folk psychology.
Minangkabau have long been considered the intellectuals of
Indonesia, and not surprisingly turn out to be deeply concerned
with intelligences, with controlling one's own emotions, and with
discerning the emotions of others. This fascinating work solidifies
the situation of emotions at the center of investigation as a
powerful ethnographic strategy"--
