Book Synopsis The Roth Family by : Russell McDougall
Book excerpt: The relationship between anthropology and colonial administration is the subject of contentious discussion, and the Roth family figure largely in the history of both. The book examines the relation between anthropology and colonial administration through consideration of the contributors of the remarkable Roth family. The book emphasises the contribution of Walter E. Roth in particular, not only because of his empirical contributions but also because of the manner in which his work in Australia was cut short by controversy.
