DESCRIPTION: Growing Up in New Guinea... On the island of Manus, in the Admiralty Group, Margaret Mead found an isolated community untouched by missionaries or foreign trade. Here she watched the children grow-up scholed as babies to the hazards of the sea, sure-ffoted, quick-handed, with perfect physical adjustment to life. Starting with one section of human society, the author goes on in the second part of her book to the larger aspects of educational and emotional problems in the 'civilized' world of today.
