Islands and Cultures is very important in its content, voice, and coverage. Each chapter is rich with new ideas, and every author brings a different kind of evidence to explore their focal place and peoples. -Eleanor Sterling, Director, Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology This book seeks-and at times finds-the confluence where the waters of Western knowledge and Pacific indigenous knowledge meet. Humanity's future path is there, a path by which our Mother the Earth and all of her descendants may yet thrive. -Justice Sir Joe Williams, New Zealand Supreme Court Islands and Cultures is very important in its content, voice, and coverage. Each chapter is rich with new ideas, and every author brings a different kind of evidence to explore their focal place and peoples. -Eleanor Sterling, Director, Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology -- Eleanor Sterling
