Book Summary
This is the first book to focus directly on gender in Amazonia for nearly thirty
years. Research on gender and sexual identity has become central to social
science during that time, but studies have concentrated on other places and
people, leaving the gendered experiences of indigenous Amazonians relatively
unexplored.
McCallum explores little-known aspects of the day-to-day lives of Amazonian
peoples in Brazil and Peru. Taking a closer look at the lives of the Cashinahua
people, the book provides fascinating insights into conception, pregnancy and
birth; naming rituals and initiation ceremonies; concepts of space and time;
community and leadership; exchange and production practices; and the philosophy
of daily life
