Over the past several decades Slovak ethnographers have worked diligently to collect and publish their research in a number of areas. One such area has been family life from the point of view of traditions, customs, and special celebratory moments. Between the two world wars, the subject of family structure and the elements of everyday life were also treated. Only now, in a recent publication, Tradicie slovenskej rodiny [Slovak Family Traditions] (published by the Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava, 1997; 242 p.), have the two areas been brought together, each enriching the other and providing a bounty of information for folklorists. "Slovak Family Traditions" was compiled by the Slovak ethnographer Marta Botikova of Comenius University in Bratislava. It consists of twelve chapters contributed by Botikova and two additional scholars, Son'a Svecova, formerly of Charles University in Prague, and Komelia Jakubikova, also of Comenius University. The volume deals with traditional family structures in Slovakia, the extended family and kinship terms, the relationship of the family to the village, the architecture of the peasant household, the distribution of family property, birth control, and family customs. A 33-page summary (large format pages) in English which follows the narrative chapter by chapter allows a quick perusal of the contents and can help a researcher decide where to place her/his focus, making the book a user-friendly source. The 13-page bibliography is a researcher's dream for its clear presentation of
