Mary Douglas Collection. Edited by Richard Fardon

Résumé du livre

'Cultures and Crises' brings 13 essays on culture, not previously collected, from the last decade and a half of Mary Douglas's life. 'A Very Personal Method' brings together writings in different genres composed over her whole career to demonstrate a distinctive style of thought and expression, which ranged freely between consideration of family and friends, the demands of domestic routine and her membership of the Roman Catholic church, and global issues of environment and security.
