Review of the original publication: “Mrs. Leith-Ross studies the Ibo woman in four phases of her environment, from the most remote ‘bush’, almost untouched by civilization, to the cosmopolitan coast town of Port Harcourt; and if her general conclusion seems to be that the higher they rise in the scale of civilization the more they deteriorate and the harder it is to like ‘the new sophisticated grasping self-centered type’, that is perhaps to be expected in a time of too rapid transition, of which no government can really regulate the pace.” W. E. H., Journal of the Royal African Society, Vol. 38, No. 151 (Apr., 1939), pp. 300-302 (3 pages)
