He Was A Member Of The Brilliant Betweenthewars Generation That Included Raymond Firth, Reo Fortune, Margaret Mead, Gregory Bateson, And Hortense Powdermaker, All Of Whom Pioneered Modern Field Research In The Insular South Pacific. The Island Of Menstruating Men Was A Pathbreaking Exploration Of Gender In Wogeo When First Published.

It Is An Articulate, Insightful Examination Of The Meaning Of Tradition And Of The Integration Of Culture.
