The Cambridge history of the native peoples of the Americas. South America by Frank Salomon

A large scale treatment of pre-Colombian life in South America. It's a co-operative book, edited by Mr. Salomon, who has a bias towards historians from the managed ecology school. An interesting and informative read.
