Итог: | Like missionaries, anthropologists who take their children overseas face a number of challenges. Joan Cassell's Children in the Field (1987) presents essays by nearly a dozen such anthropologists.

A particularly intriguing finding is that several children criticize their parents for too much cultural adaptation. Might missionary children raise the same cry? How could parents respond? |
