Studies in anthropology and psychology undertaken in recent years on concepts of person and self approach the problem by concentrating on ideologies; the question of practice remains largely neglected. This is the first study to examine the individual-dividual debate empirically from the - emic - perspective of decision making, observed over a two-year period among the Bakkarwal, Himalayan Muslim pastoralists. Of particular significance is the fact that the author bases her approach on the life cycle and on gender and status differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCHOICE\u003c\/i\u003e OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC BOOK OF THE YEAR 1999\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/b\u003e Individuals and Dividuals\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/b\u003e Coming into Being\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/b\u003e Growing into Society\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/b\u003e Practicing Norms\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/b\u003e Perpetuating Life and Producing Values\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/b\u003e Reproducing Norms and Values\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/b\u003e Waiting for the Life Beyond\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eConclusion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041434829143,"sku":"9781571819031","price":96.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781571819031.jpg?v=1750950266","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/autonomy-life-cycle-gender-and-status-among-himalayan-pastoralists-9781571819031","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
