This is the first general survey to cover the entire field of Melanesian religion. The book starts with traditional religious experience, examines the introduction of Christianity and the missions, and the indigenous response to colonialism of cargo cultism and independent churches. It concludes with the impact of modernization on religious belief and practice. This differs from other books in treating the full range of Melanesian religious experience, rather than concentrating solely on anthropological or Christian aspects. It deals with Melanesian society, and Papua New Guinea in particular--practices, religious activities, and beliefs--from a religious rather than ethnographic viewpoint, but will appeal to readers with a spread of interests and approaches.
