The Pintupi – a hunting-and-gathering people of Australia’s Western Desert – were among the last Aborigines to come into contact with white society. This book presents a comprehensive ethnographic interpretation of the ways Pintupi politics, cosmology, kinship systems, nomadic patterns, and social values reinforce and sometimes contradict each other. The book is based on the author’s fieldwork over a three year period.
