"The Gurungs : Thunder of Himal is the first attempt to a psychological study of the Nepalese. It is the first comprehensive attempt to analytically explore the psyche of the turbulent warriors, the Gurungs of the central Himalayas.It is an authentic account of the irresistible destroyer or the war hero of the two World Wars. Employing the empirical research on the modal personality of the Nepalese Gurungs, the author reveals in sheer anthropological and psychohistorical sense the fascinating life-patterns, cultural traits, socialization processes, dream visions, demographic and life-historical data, rituals, myths and omens. The book is a must to all those interested in promoting an understanding of a major ethnic group that has contributed to the making of this Himalayan kingdom."No. 24399 220 pp. Seller Inventory # 39649
