¿Por qué tantas culturas han permitido el asesinato de las niñas recién nacidas? ¿Por qué los hombres se creen superiores a las mujeres? Marvin Harris responde a estas y muchas otras preguntas demostrando que caníbales y reyes, esclavos y ciudadanos, madres e hijas, padres e hijos -las culturas a que todos ellos pertenecen- han de asumir en cada caso sus pautas culturales dentro de un proceso global de adaptación de las sociedades a su entorno.
