Anthropologist Jean L. Briggs spent seventeen months living on a remote Arctic shore as the “adopted daughter†of an Inuit family. Through vignettes of daily life she unfolds a warm and perceptive tale of the behavioral patterns of the Utku people, their way of training children, and their handling of deviations from desired behavior.
