This classic paperback is available once again―and exclusively―from Harvard University Press. This book is the story of the life of Nisa; a member of the !Kung tribe of hunter-gatherers from southern Africa’s Kalahari desert. Told in her own words―earthy; emotional; vivid―to Marjorie Shostak; a Harvard anthropologist who succeeded; with Nisa’s collaboration; in breaking through the immense barriers of language and culture; the story is a fascinating view of a remarkable woman.

I have a Hungarian hardcover translation but it was too big and heavy to carry around for reading. This is where Kindle's edge comes in.The book itself is a masterpiece; also a must have for international relations students; and I am happy to be able to read it in English on Kindle; tough I regret that there were two typos (Page 70 Location 1158; Page 69 Location 1146) in the first 7%... - there might also be others which didn't catch my attention. I do not know weather it is an OCR issue or those typos also do exist in the original US edition. Relative to word count the typo count is marginal.Whatever... just pour premium content items like this also to Kindle!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Della K.

Best Place To Start With KissingerBy RileyI read this book shortly after it was first published; and still believe it to be the best place to start with Kissinger.Recently decided to download a digital copy to read on my iPad.
