This is a valuable ethnographic work in anthropology generally, and medical anthropology, specifically, which integrates questions of biopolitics and culture into discussions of social production and reproduction.

Show[s] a process of change unfolding in the [Bekaa and Syrian Desert]... [and includes] detailed chapters on colonial myths about gender and demography, consanguineous marriage practices, population, and poverty, plus a review of nomad studies world-wide.... Extremely important and crucial.
