This study sharply focuses on a society where cultural heterogeneity and rapid change are significant forces. The author first provides a summary introduction and then penetrates directly to the central process of change in Japanese society by contrasting life in a modern rural community to life in Osaka.

HOLT. RINEHART AND WINSTON

Concise, highly readable general overview of religion! The development of two themes--the description of religious events, rituals, and states of mind; and the nature of anthropological aims, views, procedures, and interpretations--are effectively and informatively presented in this compact volume. The interweaving of these two themes provides a view of religion as an anthropological subject and of religion as a process in human life.
