Reviews

An attraction of this book is that it covers both Austronesian and Papuan languages, something which is needed on other topics as well ... The papers are uniformly excellent and the book is edited to a high standard ... it is certainly a very welcome addition to the literature. * R H Barnes, Anthropos 94.1999 * This valuable collection offers a firm empirical and methodologically rigorous account of the psychological, linguistic, and conceptual processes by which human beings relate to space. As such, it provides a foundation for all of the other contemporary interests in space, place, and locality across the disciplines of anthrology, cultural studies, history and comparative aesthetics. * James F. Weiner, Anthropological Linguistics, 42, No.2. *
