This classic, bestselling study of the !Kung San, foragers of the Dobe area of the Kalahari Desert describes a people's reactions to the forces of modernization, detailing relatively recent changes to !Kung rituals, beliefs, social structure, marriage and kinship system. It documents their determination to take hold of their own destiny, despite exploitation of their habitat and relentless development to assert their political rights and revitalize their communities. Use of the name Ju/'hoansi (meaning "real people") acknowledges their new sense of empowerment. Since the publication of the Third Edition in 2003, Richard Lee has made eight further trips to the Kalahari, the most recent in 2010 and 2011. The Dobe and Nyae Nyae Areas have continued to transform and the people have had to respond and adapt to the pressures of capitalist economics and bureaucratic governance of the Namibian and Botswana states. This Fourth Edition chronicles and bears witness to these evolving social conditions and their impacts on lives of the Ju/'hoansi.

A textbook must provide, first and foremost, information to assist the reader in better understanding the topic. Second, it ought to provide the information in a way that can be easily accessed and digested, and it needs to be credible. Textbooks that have gone through multiple editions continue to improve as a result of reviewers' comments and readers' feedback, and this one is no exception. Looking back over the efforts associated with this Fifth Edition, the old wedding custom of "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" comes to mind. We have built upon the solid foundation of previous editions, but then added "something new." It almost goes without saying that we have "borrowed" from others in that we both cite and quote examples of program evaluation studies from the literature. "Something blue" . . . well, we're not sure about that.
