Sprache: Deutsch Leineneinband gr. 8;; 290 Seiten; ein Bibliotheksstempel Rückseite haupttitel - sonst ordentlich; einige Fotos auf Kunstdruckpapier, einige Karten und Tabellen im Text; - THE AuSTRALIAN administered Territories of Papua and New Guinea have become a major interest of the Australian National U niversity, and in particularof the Research School of Pacific Studies within that University. As a result of this interest there i5 now a considerable body of scholars, in a wide range of disciplines, who have spent many years in the study of New Guinea and its problems. There has resulted a great deal of specialized writing, but New Guinea and its problems have recently come to the notice and interest of a much wider audience throughout the world, whose needs are not adequately met by what a specialist writes for his fellow specialists. I therefore suggested to Mr Fisk that he attempt to bring together some of these specialists in the writing of a bank. That would serve as an intelligent mans guide to Papua-New Guinea and some of its more interesting problems and prospects. The result is a lively book, in which a group of leading specialists look at the present situation in Papua New Guinea from the point of view of their own specialty, and consider what this bades for the future, and in particular für the next decade or so. - - -.
