Challinor Selected Bibliography // Key issues in the field of family studies and practical ways of reconstructing personal family history are explored in this book, a collection of essays and four workshop transcripts from the Smithsonian Institution's Sixth International Symposium, held in Washington, D.C. on June 14-17, 1977. Selected from such disciplines as biology, history, sociology, and anthropology, these essays challenge the mind to find new connections between accepted truths and propositions from both the humanities and the sciences. Kin and Communities fills some gaps in knowledge about the enduring place of families and communities as society's building blocks and in our understanding of the biological, historical, and social processes connecting our smallest social units with the largest institutions.
