Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 264 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Drawing on ethnography of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Australia, Mortality, Mourning and Mortuary Practices in Indigenous Australia focuses on the current ways in which indigenous people confront and manage various aspects of death.
