Summary, etc. Margaret Mead is well known for her out-<br/>standing studies of primitive societies. Here<br/>she compares the sexual attitudes of Pacific<br/>cislanders with those of modern Americans, in a<br/>fascinating attempt to answer the question:<br/>"How are men and women to think about their<br/>maleness and their femaleness in this twentieth<br/>century?' She shows that, while sex may be<br/>screamed at us from newspapers, TV screens,<br/>and advertisements, it is a guilty<br/>sex for we<br/>have lost beyond reclaim the instinctive body-<br/>awareness of the naked South-Sea islander.<br/>Lack of preparedness may prevent is from<br/>realizing our adult sexual potentialities; it may<br/>also make our society the poorer if the two<br/>sexes are not contributing their full, distinctive<br/>qualities to its total culture.<br/>'Certainly one of the most important<br/>contributions to contemporary thought which<br/>has appeared in the last decade' - Geoffrey<br/>Gorer
