Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Malinowski explores the interplay between science, magic, and religion, proposing a dual reality where the natural world is understood through observation and rationality, while the supernatural realm addresses emotional needs through faith. He argues that science originates from humanity's ability to organize knowledge, as seen in Trobriand society's technical skills, while magic serves as a pragmatic response to human limitations and challenges. Additionally, he distinguishes magic from religion, characterizing the former as goal-oriented and the latter as ritualistic, particularly in relation to life crises.
