This is the seventh volume of a projected twelve in a series issued by the Centre for the Interdisciplinary Study of Social Stress of the anthropologist Giorgio Ausenda in San Marino. Reviewers of these volumes have tended to agree on the contributors’ avoidance of the advertised ‘ethnographic perspective’, and on the length and mediocrity of the ancillary matter. The miscellaneity of the contents has also been noticed. The present volume is no exception to these traits. The articles are accompanied by an Introduction with plodding summaries of each paper, by protracted paper-by-paper discussions, and by somewhat abrupt suggestions for future work—in all, nearly half the volume (231 of 497 pages). In these adjuncts, gems rarely glint in the dross. The organiser and editors have firmly resisted the appeals of reviewers that these supplements be pared down. The omissions from the volume are as conspicuous as the additions. The seminar in San Marino at which the papers were first presented is never mentioned or dated. We are given the names and addresses of the participants with no information as to who they are. Some contributions must have been translated, but which they are, or by whom they have been translated, is not revealed
