Maroon cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. 350 pages clean and tight. Over the last twenty years Esther Goody has made extensive studies of traditional and contemporary patterns of education and child-rearing in West Africa. In this book she provides an account of the rich variety of institutions such as fostering apprenticeship and wardship which have developed in West Africa either in absence of or alongside formal schools to prepare children for the wide range of economic and political roles now available to them in adult society. Drawing on her work in West Africa and with West Africans in London Dr Goody shows that among many groups it is common practice to send children to grow up away from home. As a cross-cultural study of a central kinship institution - parenthood - and of processes of change in adult role allocation the book is of interest to social anthropologists sociologists educationalists and social psychologists. .
