Any good books about the study of isolated tribes and their concepts and morals, and how those differ from the ones of our current civilization?

Yes! I have one on my shelf called The Gebusi: Lives Transformed in a Rainforest World
Also check out The Continuum Concept.
Levi Strauss
Levi-Strauss to be sure is pretty good
If you want a quicker read to get you started, check out "Understanding a Primitive Society" by Peter Winch, who develops Evans-Pritchard's and Levy-Bruhl's research into the whether "primitive" cultures are rational in the same sense we are, or whether there are different rationalities.
Also maybe look at Marshall Sahlins, Islands of History.

"Don't Sleep, There Are Snakes" by Daniel L. Everett.
>A riveting account of the astonishing experiences and discoveries made by linguist Daniel Everett while he lived with the Pirahã, a small tribe of Amazonian Indians in central Brazil. Daniel Everett arrived among the Pirahã with his wife and three young children hoping to convert the tribe to Christianity. Everett quickly became obsessed with their language and its cultural and linguistic implications. The Pirahã have no counting system, no fixed terms for color, no concept of war, and no personal property. Everett was so impressed with their peaceful way of life that he eventually lost faith in the God he'd hoped to introduce to them, and instead devoted his life to the science of linguistics. Part passionate memoir, part scientific exploration, Everett's life-changing tale is riveting look into the nature of language, thought, and life itself.

The Yanomamo - Chagnon
not necessarily solely about concepts and morals, but it's one of the greatest anthropological studies of a completely isolated society.
