Description

"Endangered Peoples of Southeast and East Asia: Struggles to Survive and Thrive introduces 14 endangered cultures, from the Kubu of Central Sumatra in Indonesia to the Ainu of Japan. The most pressing issues of these marginalized groups - such as the impact of tourism, prohibition against whaling, or dislocation due to nuclear testing - are brought to light by anthropologists based on their own extensive field work. The cultural and historical information provided here is not available in any other printed source."--BOOK JACKET.
