Customer Review:
Among the Cannibals is a fascinating book for anyone interested in other cultures and their practices - religious or otherwise. What makes this book particularly amazing is that the author truly did find people that are today practicing cannibalism. Raffaele even manages to make it seem acceptable... more info

from Waveland Press
Price: $19.76

Customer Review:
This is a real classic in the history of anthropology, published in 1922, and unlike another classic from the same decade, Coming of Age in Samoa, it has worn well, too. This is where modern ethnography begins. Malinowski tells us how to do ethnography, in no uncertain terms, as he explains... more info

My 86 year old father served in the New Guinea campaign. Only now, in his later years, has he been interested and willing to talk about his World War II experiences.
