Psychology and Primitive Culture

For the psychologist the unity of primitive and modern society is as important as their differences. The underlying psychological mechanisms, however, remain much the same at all stages of social development. The psychological study of primitive culture forms the best introduction to the psychology of contemporary social life. This is the position which is adopted and maintained in the present book.
