A fascinating, highly readable anthropological account of the way the inhabitants of a small English village come to conceive of the world how they imagine there is such a thing as "society" and such a thing as an "individual." Contrary to the expectations engendered by theory, social life appears as chaotic, multiple, and contradictory a muddling through, facilitated by the ambiguous relationship between the formal appearance of behaviors and the actuality of their personal interpretation.
