<p>The problems of life in Gopalpur are understandable. From the Western point of view, the ways in which they are solved seem strange. How do wrestling matches between young men from different villages in the Gopalpur area help make social and economic relations between these villages smoother? Why is the preferred marital partner one's sister's daughter or cross cousin? What useful purpose can the saltmakers' cast serve when saltmakers make no salt? How are the strong forces making for competition and conflict in Gopalpur contained and controlled, so that crucial areas of cooperation are not destroyed? These are some of the many questions answered in this case study that make it fascinating reading.</p>

<p>Wisdom, strength and love were the Amazonian qualities given to Wonder Woman by her creator, Charles Moulton, when he began the comic strip in 1941. For six productive years, his stories enchanted children of all ages. In this collection of the best strips from the 1940s -- the Golden Age of comics -- Wonder Woman lives again. And, as Gloria Steinem points out, she is a symbol for the feminist movement, an example of sisterhood, self-reliance and self-respect for all woman to follow. The comic strips reproduced in this book are printed in full color. Introduction by Gloria Steinem. Interpretive essay by psychologist, writer and professor Phyllis Chesler.</p>
