self-published. 2005. Trade paperback. Very good. Signed by author. signed by author on title page. 173 p. Includes illustrations. . During the 1960's and early 1970's the dual territories of Papua and New Guinea were administered by Australia. This book is the story of a New Zealand Presbyterian minister, wife, and daughters who lived in PNG during these years of rapid change. The tasks were numerous. Building roads, school-rooms, houses, and boats were all part of the missionary task. The fact that there was little money for these required lateral thinking, inventive methods, and a lot of hard work in the tropical heat. Combating illness, managing schools, and running a Trade Store were everyday matters. The story of the Scarlett family and their many Papuan friends breaks away from stereotypes of "a missionary" that have been held by many. This honest recounting is from one who was there, and has retained vivid memories as well as diaries, to tell it as it was.

This archive-based study disproves the myth of ideological Nordism and of short term political developments outside Norden as most important for the NORDEK iniative. This study also disproves the myth that NORDEK plan was a political and ideological symbol without socioeconomic substance. The purpose with NORDEK was to create a better basis for generating economic growth and social welfare. The study finally shows that the NORDEK failure in 1970 was a result of a power struggle in Finnish domestic politics and lacking political will in the other Nordic countries to continue without Finland.

Ocarina Books. 2015. Trade paperback. Fine.. 272 p., illustrations, bibliography, index. . In 1975, Hawaiian scholars Rubellite Kawena Johnson and John Kaipo Mahelona published Na Inoa Hoku, a Catalogue of Hawaiian and Pacific Star Names. Though long out of print, Na Inoa Hoku is still widely regarded as a definitive source of reference for anyone interested in the use of astronomy in Polynesian voyaging or the nature and development of ritual and calendrical practices throughout the Pacific. Working together with British archaeoastronomer Clive Ruggles, the authors have extensively revised and extended the catalogues and transformed the discussion of their wider context and significance, resulting in a much stronger focus upon the rich historical legacy of the Hawaiian Islands themselves. This new edition of Na Inoa Hoku is completely overhauled, vastly expanded, and includes new translation of many key primary Hawaiian sources from the mid-nineteenth century onwards.

This modest anthology of fables represents the first publication in the language of Taku, a Polynesian outlier situated off the east coast of Bougainville in Papua New Guinea. The island's small size and remoteness have left it largely untouched by Western influences, and a forty-year-old ban on Christian missionaries and churches has allowed the population of 450 to continue unhindered a variety of traditional practices long disconintued on neighbouring atolls, and indeed within Polynesia itself. Taku's language is Samoic and, in common with Samoa itself and other island groups within West Polynesia, Taku's oral tradition includes a category of fables told princibipally for domestic entertainment in a family setting.
