Primitive Society (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163121740)

Primitive Society is a book written by Robert H. Lowie, which explores the social and cultural aspects of primitive societies. The book examines the ways in which these societies functioned and how their members interacted with each other. Lowie's work is based on extensive research and analysis of various primitive societies across the world, including those in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of primitive society. Lowie discusses topics such as kinship, religion, economics, and politics, and how these factors influenced the social structures of primitive societies. He also explores the ways in which these societies adapted to their environment and how they developed unique cultural practices.Throughout the book, Lowie emphasizes the importance of understanding primitive societies on their own terms, rather than viewing them through the lens of Western culture. He argues that these societies have their own complex systems of organization and belief, and that they should be studied and appreciated for their unique contributions to human culture.Overall, Primitive Society is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the social and cultural dynamics of primitive societies. It offers a valuable perspective on the diversity of human culture and the ways in which different societies have adapted to their environments and developed their own unique traditions and practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
