About this product
Product Information
Marshall Sahlins centers these essays on islands-Hawaii, Fiji, New Zealand-whose histories have intersected with European history. But he is also concerned with the insular thinking in Western scholarship that creates false dichotomies between past and present, between structure and event, between the individual and society. Sahlins's provocative reflections form a powerful critique of Western history and anthropology.

The book I received was a different cover than listed which is annoying because I specifically chose this listing to get the book with the cover pictured. Other than that, the book was in decent condition. I get a lot of books from this seller and this is one of the only times I've been disappointed.
