Title: Return to Nisa
Description: "The story of two women - one a hunter-gatherer in Botswana, the other an ailing American anthropologist - this book returns the reader to territory that Marjorie Shostak wrote of so poignantly in the now classic Nisa: The Life and Words of a !Kung Woman. Here, however, the ground has perceptibly shifted. First published in 1981, Nisa served as a introduction to anthropology's most basic question: Can there be true understanding between people of profoundly different cultures?"--BOOK JACKET.
