Description: A collection of essays that redefine and transform the field of kinship.
Review Quotes: "This is one of the few books which crosses disciplinary terrains with clear and brilliant consequences. It not only brings anthropology into every sphere, but shows that fundamental thinking on life and kinship under conditions of globalization compel us to accept and work with a radical remapping of knowledge. This text considers these issues with prismatic illumination and is unprecedented in its success."--Judith Butler, University of California, Berkeley
