Summary

Over the last decades the ethnography of the New Guinea Highlands has progressed enormously. Paula Brown Glick has been a main contributor ever since she started doing field work in the late 1950s, until now. With these essays a number of her colleagues present results of their own researches, mainly in the New Guinea Highlands. Thus the book gives a splendid overview of the present state of highlands ethnography.
