Yanomamo: The Fierce People

3.5

About the book

Based on the author's extensive fieldwork, this classic ethnography, now in its fifth edition, focuses on the Yanomamo. These truly remarkable South American people are one of the few primitive sovereign tribal societies left on earth.

To summarize: a real eyebrow-raising page-turner that had me laughing, disgusted and frequently saying different! in an awed whisper.
