The world until yesterday : what can we learn from traditional societies?

Review

A fascinating view of how traditional societies and modern nations contrast.  Through looking at government, warfare, religion, dispute resolution, health, child rearing and many other areas, the author helps us see our society.  Many of the modern conveniences are wonderful. We no longer die of starvation and war.  We also can learn how to improve our health and encourage our children by looking at traditional nations.
