En 'Vacas, cerdos, guerras y brujas', Marvin Harris explora las aparentes irracionalidades de diversas culturas, buscando las causas materiales, históricas y ecológicas que subyacen a sus costumbres. A través de una investigación interdisciplinaria, Harris analiza desde las prohibiciones alimentarias hasta las prácticas bélicas, ofreciendo una perspectiva sorprendente y original sobre los enigmas de la cultura humana. Este libro invita a cuestionar nuestras propias creencias y a comprender la lógica oculta detrás de las tradiciones más diversas.
Marvin Harris was an American anthropologist. He was born in Brooklyn, New York City. A prolific writer, he was highly influential in the development of cultural materialism. In his work, he combined Karl Marx's emphasis on the forces of production with Thomas Malthus's insights on the impact of demographic factors on other parts of the sociocultural system.
