«Sexo y temperamento» is the anthropological study by Margaret Mead, published by Paidos Iberica Ediciones S A in paperback (280 pages, in Spanish).
Margaret Mead analyses the relationship between personality and culture by comparing the psychology of the sexes in different societies. She concludes that the traits the West attributes to the feminine and the masculine do not derive from biological determinism but from cultural construction: in other cultures they may appear inverted or not exist at all.
Originally published in 1935 under the title Sex and Temperament in Three Primitive Societies. Paidós Básica collection, no. 8.
For readers interested in anthropology, gender studies and cultural psychology.
Margaret Mead was an American cultural anthropologist, author and speaker, who appeared frequently in the mass media during the mid-twentieth century.
