nikolaiilantsov's review against another edition
I can't take a book that deals with anthropology, but uses the word "primitive" to describe some societies, seriously. Also, it's just not very well written and doesn't seem rigorous enough.
jessie85's review against another edition
I don’t read non-fiction so I have find out myself what is true and what isn’t. I just read a whole chapter on the “potentially true” story of Sweeney Todd when we know all too well that it was originally a Penny Dreadful story and that’s just the tip of the ice berg. Sensationalised bs. Read “Cannibalism - A Perfectly Natural History” instead. More facts and far more entertaining.
