520    "Calling in the Soul (Hu Plig) is the chant the Hmong use 
       to guide the soul of a newborn baby into its body on the 
       third day after birth. Based on extensive original 
       research conducted in the late 1980s in a village in 
       northern Thailand, this ethnographic study examines Hmong 
       cosmological beliefs about the cycle of life as expressed 
       in practices surrounding birth, marriage, and death, and 
       the gender relationships evident in these practices. The 
       social framework of the Hmong (or Miao, as they are called
       in China, and Meo, in Thailand), who have lived on the 
       fringes of powerful Southeast Asian states for centuries, 
       is distinctly patrilineal, granting little direct power to
       women. Yet within the limits of this structure, Hmong 
       women wield considerable influence in the spiritually 
       critical realms of birth and death"--|cProvided by
