Beschreibung
This book tells the riveting story of a small circle of renegade scientist-explorers who changed something profound: what it means to be normal. In the early twentieth century, these pioneering anthropologists, most of them women, made intrepid journeys that overturned our assumptions about race, sexuality, gender and the nature of human diversity and created the moral universe we inhabit today. Hugely informative and a New York Times bestseller.
