Description

Explore the complexities of human behavior and cultural structures with Taboo Topics by Routledge. In this volume, Norman L. Farberow examines how culture provides a framework for its members through specific rules of conduct. While some rules are found in written laws and regulations, many stem from unwritten folkways, customs, and taboos. This book investigates why studying taboo subjects is challenging, as various forces shape human thought, action, and feeling. The researchers included in this collection focus on the study of these social phenomena without taking positions on the nature of the taboos themselves. It is a valuable resource for those studying medical, legal, and social sciences, particularly within the fields of anthropology and sociology.
