Leaf and Dwight Read illustrate how humans organize systems of social ideas through structures of kinship and outline what this implies for the science of human social organization. Leaf and Read explain that every human society has a social organization that is associated with a distinct vocabulary, which correlates with a particular system of interrelated definitions of social roles and relations. These roles and relations have four specific logical properties: reciprocity, transitivity, boundedness, and imaginary spatial dimensionality. These properties allow individuals to use them in communication to create ongoing, agreed-upon, organizations. This book is recommended for scholars of anthropology, sociology, linguistics, and mathematics. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Figures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Tables\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments and Who Did What\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: The Path to the Kinship Apocalypse\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Theory of Organizations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Kinship and Biology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Kinship Maps\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Ideas Attached to Kinship Maps\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Domestic Group Organizations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: The Hopi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: The Purum\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: The Dravidian Problem Transformed\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 11: Kinship, Logic, and Mathematics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 12: Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlossary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042663301463,"sku":"9781793632371","price":91.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/introduction-to-the-science-of-kinship-9781793632371","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
