Review of 'Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I must admit I was expecting a deeper explanation of the indian lifestyle and rituals, but the book makes a good job of pointing out how our society has drifted away from close community roles to an isolated lifestlye.
The theory that 'city humans' like the experience of going through hard times such as a natural disasters or war is an interesting one. The stats given about mental issues and suicides going down on a community experiencing these hard times are impressive and certainly suggest we as a species like to collaborate and work together even if current society teaches us to get ahead of the rest no matter the cost.
It's a pretty interesting read talking about real issues with today's society, it definitely left me wanting more.
