Alfred Radcliffe-Brown (1881-1955) was a key British social
anthropologist who is widely considered to be the founder of social
functionalism. Originally published in 1922, and reprinted in this
corrected form in 1933, this book was based upon fieldwork carried
out by Radcliffe-Brown, alongside E. L. Grant Watson and Daisy
Bates, in the Andaman Islands during the years 1906 to 1908. The
text contains detailed information on various aspects of the
indigenous cultures found on the Islands, with analysis of social
organisation, ceremonial customs, myths, legends and religious
beliefs. Illustrative figures are incorporated throughout,
including numerous photographs, and appendices are provided on
language and technology. This book will be of value to anyone with
an interest in Radcliffe-Brown, the Andaman Islands and the
development of anthropology.
