DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Shortly after her famous anthropological field studies in Samoa and Manus, Margaret Mead was sent by the American Museum of Natural History to investigate the family life and the social setting of an Indian tribe living on a government reservation. The pioneer work that resulted from her observations is here reprinted with a new introduction relating our treatment of the Indians to the whole question of "racial guilt." Dr. Mead sketches in the background of the tribe, describes their reservation, and discusses the economic and political situation of these wards of the government, as well as their social organization, religion and education. One section is devoted to a detailed study of the Indian woman and her place in this changing culture, and a concluding section provides statistical data, sample conversations and case histories."-- Back cover.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt’s a fact of life: birds flock, fish school, people “tribe.” Malcolm Gladwell and other authors have written about how the fact that humans are genetically programmed to form “tribes” of 20-150 people has proven true throughout our species’ history. Every company in the word consists of an interconnected network of tribes (A tribe is defined as a group of between 20 and 150 people in which everyone knows everyone else, or at least knows of everyone else). In Tribal Leadership, Dave Logan, John King, and Halee Fischer-Wright show corporate leaders how to first assess their company’s tribal culture and then raise their companies’ tribes to unprecedented heights of success. In a rigorous eight-year study of approximately 24,000 people in over two dozen corporations, Logan, King, and Fischer-Wright discovered a common theme: the success of a company depends on its tribes, the strength of its tribes is determined by the tribal culture, and a thriving corporate culture can be established by an effective tribal leader. Tribal Leadership will show leaders how to employ their companies’ tribes to maximize productivity and profit: the author’s research, backed up with interviews ranging from Brian France (CEO of NASCAR) to “Dilbert” creator Scott Adams, shows that over three quarters of the organizations they’ve studied have tribal cultures that are adequate at best.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book brings together multidisciplinarity, desirability and possibility of consilience of borderline studies which are topically diverse and methodologically innovative. It includes contemporary tribal issues within anthropology and other disciplines. In addition, the chapters underline the analytical sophistication, theoretical soundness and empirical grounding in the area of emerging core perspectives in tribal studies. The volume alludes to the emergence of tribal studies as an independent academic discipline of its own rights. It offers the opportunity to consider the entire intellectual enterprise of understanding disciplinary and interdisciplinary dualism, to move beyond interdisciplinarity of the science-humanities divide and to conceptualise a core of theoretical perspectives in tribal studies. The book proves an indispensable reference point for those interested in studying tribes in general and who are engaged in the process of developing tribal studies as a discipline in particular.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRena Whittaker is proof that we can rise above our childhood experiences. As a child and young adult, Rena struggled with self-esteem. She hid as much as she could, not believing that she was worthy of love. Then, when the right people entered her life at the right moments, things began to change. Groups of supportive women have played a critical role in Rena's healing journey, their stories becoming her catalyst for healing. By sharing her story, Rena imparts the lessons she learned from her tribes. In BeingTribal, Rena encourages us to create our own tribes of support, tackling lifestyle changes in "one-degree shifts." It's not an instantaneous overhaul, but rather a series of small steps, formed into habits that lead to lasting solutions. Workbook pages help you visualize your new way of being. In a sweeping range of topics from money to health to relationships, Rena Whittaker guides readers into practicing lives full of peace, compassion, abundance, and grace; all in simple one-degree shifts.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWe have a strong instinct to belong to small groups defined by clear purpose and understanding--"tribes." This tribal connection has been largely lost in modern society, but regaining it may be the key to our psychological survival. Decades before the American Revolution, Benjamin Franklin lamented that English settlers were constantly fleeing over to the Indians-but Indians almost never did the same. Tribal society has been exerting an almost gravitational pull on Westerners for hundreds of years, and the reason lies deep in our evolutionary past as a communal species. The most recent example of that attraction is combat veterans who come home to find themselves missing the incredibly intimate bonds of platoon life. The loss of closeness that comes at the end of deployment may explain the high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder suffered by military veterans today. Combining history, psychology, and anthropology, Tribe explores what we can learn from tribal societies about loyalty, belonging, and the eternal human quest for meaning. It explains the irony that-for many veterans as well as civilians-war feels better than peace, adversity can turn out to be a blessing, and disasters are sometimes remembered more fondly than weddings or tropical vacations. Tribe explains why we are stronger when we come together, and how that can be achieved even in today's divided world.
