This is a bit of a tease (sorry, Stephen!) but here are headlines and titles of Margaret Mead sources. I clicked on a few but there were charges for each, so..... If anyone wants to shell out a few coins to find the real stuff, we at TIPS will be happy to share in your largesse. Headlines that caught my attention are that a "think tank" called Mead's methods sloppy and her conclusions false, naming her work "the worst nonfiction book of the century." Okay, I was tempted to hand over my MasterCard number on that one... The source that looked most scientific (from Science) was in the "Letters" section. However it assessed a charge for gawking as well. Here's the source for searches - I've bookmarked it for future. It looks pretty thorough - includes both professional and non- for sources. Even helpfully lists reading level for article. (Could that be a measurement for future TIPSters? "Reading level below 15 need not apply"?) http://www.elibrary.com/s/encarta1 Beth Benoit University of Massachusetts Lowell Date: 05-01-1999 Reading Level: 14.
