This antique text contains a detailed treatise on the contacting of indigenous tribes and communities on the continent of Africa. This brochure is a reprint of a series of papers that appeared during 1934, 1935 and 1936 in the journal of 'The African Institute' (the sponsor of the field-work out of which these discussions arose). All the contributions are written from first-hand experience, and thus make for an intriguing historical and cultural text. This book has been elected for modern republication due to its educational and historical value, and we are proud to republish it here complete with a new introductory biography of the author. Bronisław Kasper Malinowski (1884 - 1942) was a Polish anthropologist, who is commonly hailed as one of the most influential anthropologists of the twentieth century.
