Motoko Katakura, Bedouin Village; A Study of a Saudi Arabian People in Transition (Tokyo: University of Tokyo Press, 1977) pp. xvii + 189 index, app., glossary, biblio. 3600 yen, U.S. $14.50. Available from: International Scholarly Book Services, Inc., P.O. Box 555, Forest Grove, Oregon 97116. - Motoko Katakura’s Bedouin Village is a substantial contribution to the slowly emerging corpus of modern ethnographic works on Saudi Arabia. Notwithstanding the earlier descriptive accounts of the culture and society (Philby, Musil, Twitchell, Thomas, Thesinger, etc.) and more recent analytical works (e.g., Cole, Nomads of the Nomads, 1976), the field of Saudi Arabian ethnography remains woefully deficient.
