One of the most important works of modern anthropology. Written
against the backdrop of the student uprisings of the late 1960s,
the book took seriously the revolutionary fervour of the times, but
instead of seeking to destroy the rituals and symbols that can
govern and oppress, Mary Douglas saw instead that if transformation
were needed, it could only be made possible through better
understanding. Expressed with clarity and dynamism, the passionate
analysis which follows remains one of the most insightful and
rewarding studies of human behaviour ever written.
