Although under 300 pages, this volume is impressive in its scope, covering all of the Pacific Islands, from the earliest times to the present, and in its command of the material. Among the topics covered are a summary of the people and culture of the islands; the history and impact of colonization; and the impact of succeeding practices and events, such as illness, trade, nuclear testing, and the current political struggles. Fischer is director of the Institute of Polynesian languages and literatures in Auckland, New Zealand. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
