In this compelling narrative Piontelli recounts her work at a special unit for twin pregnancies at a maternity hospital. In her travels around the world, Piontelli has studied the role of twins in various cultures, especially throughout Africa, Asia, South America, and the Pacific rim. Twins in the World mixes anthropology, ethnography, and religious studies to show the most critical aspect of comparative world culture--how a society cares for its young--through the lens of twins, who seem to hold a special place in all cultures.
