marriage and sexual identity, property transference, and child
custody are discussed, with examples drawn from a wide range of
cultures. The second book in the Global Perspectives series,
Marriage and Divorce employs both sociological and anthropological
techniques to address a variety of fascinating issues about the
place of marriage and divorce in modern life. The volume serves as
