The Forest of Taboos: Morality, Hunting and Identity Among the Huaulu of the Moluccas
Valerio Valeri
Contends that the ambivalence felt by all humans about sex, death and eating other animals can be explained by a set of coordinated principles that are expressed in taboos. Valeri evokes the world of the Huaulu, to show the attractions of the animal world which invades the human world in many ways.
