Beschreibung
Martin Soukup's book reflects the developmental changes in social and cultural anthropology while also describing and interpreting the main features of Melanesian cultures. It follows the fates of significant anthropologists, noting the circumstances under which they conducted their field research, and conveys their interpretations of native cultures. In addition to extensive literature, it also draws from the author's own experiences gained during field research in New Guinea. Its strengths lie in the clear and systematic treatment of the topic and the rich visual and map material. It is intended for students of anthropology, ethnology, and sociology, as well as for professionals and anyone interested in issues of cultural diversity and its understanding.
