Feinbergs account of Anuta opens with a chapter on his varied experiences when he initially undertook fieldwork in this tiny, isolated Polynesian community in the Solomon Islands. The following chapters explore dominant cultural features, including language, kinship, marriage, politics, and religiontopics that align with subject matter covered in introductory anthropology courses. The final chapter looks at some of the challenges Anutans face in the twentyfirst century. Like many other peoples living on small, remote islands, Anutans strive to maintain traditional values while at the same time becoming involved in the world market economy. In all, Feinberg gives magnificent material for studying the relations between demography, environment, culture, and society in a changing world.

I thought this book would be more about practical applications of Polynesian culture, but it was more theoretical. The 2nd edition focuses heavily on historical and cultural analysis, which is not what I wanted. Unfortunately, I found it hard to connect with the material.

Great Info, But a Bit Dense
I found the content in this edition of Anuta's book really interesting, but I did struggle with some sections. It dives deep into the complexities of Polynesian culture which can be heavy reading at times. Still, it's valuable for understanding contemporary issues in the culture.

The 2nd edition of Anuta's book is just fantastic! It offers such a detailed look into Polynesian lifeways in our modern age. The writing is engaging and the illustrations are stunning, making it not just informative but also a pleasure to browse. Perfect for anyone interested in anthropology or cultural studies!
