Focusing on the Maisin of Papua New Guinea, this ethnography explores their strategies in addressing significant economic and environmental challenges. The writing is engaging and accessible, making it suitable for introductory cultural anthropology courses. Organized into chapters that reflect key anthropological themes such as kinship, gender relations, and politics, the revised second edition includes a new timeline and a concluding chapter that updates readers on critical events since 2002, including a major court victory and a devastating cyclone.
