Many anthropological accounts of warfare in indigenous societies
have described the taking of heads of other body parts as trophies.
But almost nothing is known of the prevalence of trophy-taking of
this sort in the armed forces of contemporary nation-states. This
book is a history of this type of misconduct among military
personnel over the past two centuries, exploring its close
connections with colonialism, scientific collecting and concepts of
race, and how it is a model for violent power relationships between
groups.
