It contains, wrote Margaret Mead, "the essence of Robert Redfield's multifaceted contributions to the place of community studies in social science."Peasant Society and Cultureoutlines a speculative foundation for the emergence of anthropology from the study of isolated primitive tribes.Redfield, Robert is the author of 'Little Community and Peasant Society and Culture', published 1989 under ISBN 9780226706702 and ISBN 0226706702.
