The major problem with "The Andaman Islanders" -- aside from living on an unstable, low-lying archipelago that will soon be underwater completely -- is that this book is so obscure, and so quintessentially early-20th century British anthropology -- that once you've got a copy kicking around your flat, you'll never be able to sell it, nor even give it away free for a library book sale. I've tried several times, so take my word for it. Now that you've got one, you might as well sit down and show more enjoy it. I did. And I come back to it once in a while to marvel at the insanity of modern Western society. show less
