Curators from the Pitt Rivers Museum (Oxford U.) and the Australian National University, along with other anthropologists from Europe, the US, and Australia draw on collections of artifacts and other sources to examine how western anthropologists, missionaries, and collectors interacted with the South Pacific islanders. Among their topics are commercializing ethnography in German New Guinea from 1870 to 1904, the making and repatriation of Sir William MacGregor's official collection from British New Guinea, and Beatrice Blackwood as collector and anthropologist. Quite a few photographs from the period are included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
