Igbo ideas about the universe, the person and spiritual considerations are also discussed and shown to be primarily centred around women.\u003cbr\u003eThis fascinating work is a testament to the combination of personal insight and academic detachment which the author brought to her study of Igbo women before her death in 1998. It will be a valuable resource for students and scholars in anthropology, African studies and women's studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.51 x 8.54 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 22, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42177552875600,"sku":"9780415227049","price":118.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/9540\/0016\/files\/cmZSUHIwS1VwWkM2anlrMEZEWEJMZz09.webp?v=1774720412","url":"https:\/\/palm-malen-gift-shop-pmrc.myshopify.com\/products\/women-in-igbo-life-and-thought-paperback","provider":"Palm Malen Gift Shop -PMRC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
