Ulithi - Softcover
This succinct, clear account of the design for living carried out by the people of Ulithi Atoll emphasizes ancestor worship, magic and divination, and sexual behavior in the context of social and legal obligations and family life. The reader is launched on a journey back in time to a cluster of low islets of carbonate rock in the western Pacific to discover the lives of a mild, expressive people dominated by work, group activity, and cooperation.
