Summary, etc. IN THIS full-length study of three distinct INT ways of life: the family-centered Chinese; the supernatural-centered Hindu; and the individual-centered American, the author speaks from a background of thorough familiarity with the cultures of China, India, and the United States. He develops the theory of human grouping and the role of caste-in cohesion and divisiveness-both in India and America.<br/>Few books in the social sciences or Ori Rental and Asian studies have previously com pared any of the large non-Western civiliza tions with America, or China with India. In his thought-provoking analysis, Professor Hsu breaks new ground by contrasting these three large civilizations in the light of mod ern knowledge concerning the relationship between man, society, and culture. By giving localized details and relating them to a wider framework, he makes powerful use of the insights derived from both the social sciences and regional historical studies. This novel blending of materials furnishes new and interesting hypotheses for further research.<br/>Clan, custe, and club are typical groups of each one of the cultural settings, and the author develops both the institutional and the psychological side of each orientation.
