William Halse Rivers (1864 1922) was a groundbreaking physician,
psychologist and anthropologist in the early twentieth century,
chiefly remembered for his work on the psychological disorders
produced by the First World War. In this two-volume work from 1914,
he presents his theory of the diffusion of culture in the
south-west Pacific. Volume One details aspects of the customs and
practises of the islands in Melanesia and beyond, including the
Hawaiian islands. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in the history of anthropology or the Pacific islands."
