Reviews

Stephen Nugent's brilliant book explores the changing nature of the invisibility of Amazonian caboclo society...should be required reading for anyone interested in Amazonia, contemporary peasant formations, and debates surrounding development and under-development. - American Anthropologist ...always intelligent, often witty, and at times acerbic. Amazonianists will enjoy Nugent's trenchant, often unconventional, treatment of the accepted wisdom of diverse fields. Other anthropologists will appreciate his willingness to discuss Amazonian ethnography in the context of wider social theory. - MAN
