On the Nature of Human Plasticity
To what extent are human beings capable of changing their physical characteristics and behavioural patterns over the course of their lives? This question has engaged scientists for decades: the fundamental issue is plasticity. In this wide-ranging book, Richard Lerner explores the relevant theory and empirical evidence in a variety of disciplines: molecular genetics, neuroanatomy, neurochemistry, evolutionary biology, anthropology, comparative an…

Magic: A Theoretical Reassessment [and Comments and Replies]
Comparison of aspects of magical belief and practice with elements identified in experimental parapsychology suggests that some magical phenomena may have their basis in what parapsychology in call psi. Similarities are found between magic and parapsychology in (1) conditions that facilitate the manifestation of magical and psi phenomena, (2) the mental processes implicated as effective in producing magical and psi phenomena, (3) the basic princi…

The Status of Craftsmen among the Konso of South-West Ethiopia
Opening ParagraphThere are many references to despised groups of artisans in the literature on Ethiopia, but unfortunately they are scattered through travel books which, from the anthropologist's point of view, are too superficial to permit a sustained and rigorous analysis of the variant forms of this phenomenon. Among such works I would include the publications of Jensen and the Frobenius Institute. After only five weeks' stay among the Konso h…

The Principles of Alliance Formation Between Konso Towns
The Konso are a Cushitic-speaking people of south-west Ethiopia, practising a highly sophisticated terrace and manure agriculture, their staple crop being millet. Traditionally they are organised into a number of autonomous walled towns, with an average population of about I,500. There is very little population mobility among men; about 40 per cent. of women however marry men of friendly towns in the immediate vicinity. Towns are governed by elec…

The origins of the Borana gada system
Opening ParagraphGADA, or generation-grading, systems are found only in a few Cushitic-speaking societies of Ethiopia. Unlike a true age-grading system a gada system is distinguished by the rule that all sons follow their fathers in the sequence of grades at a single fixed interval, irrespective of their actual age. In order to maintain the constancy of this interval, the length of time which a man spends in each grade is fixed at a specific numb…
Blood is Their Argument: Warfare Among the Mae Enga Tribesmen of the New Guinea Highlands
The scarcity of arable land in the central highlands of Papua New Guinea has created fierce competition among the Mae Enga for territorial control. Blood Is Their Argument studies the Mae Enga and their continuous struggle to survive and sustain both power and prestige

Two Types of Reciprocity
The purpose of this paper is to argue that reciprocity may be of two types: prestations of things and prestations of actions or, expressed in another way, gift exchanges and cooperation. Evidence from two societies will be used to show that each of these two types of reciprocity is appropriate to a different type of society or social situation
