Recenzii

Ole Bruun's book is an absorbing collection of descriptions, insights, and observations that together provide a valuable picture of life on the Mongolian steppe....Both a general introduction to the national culture and a series of insights into particular aspects of steppe life. But the main focus of the book, and the field in which it is most informative and useful, is as a study of the socio-economic transformation of the pastoral lifestyle.
