ALSO WORTH READING ON...
THE SOUTH PACIFIC ENVIRONMENT
One of the best books on the environment anywhere, let alone the South Pacific, is
'Atu Emberson-Bain (ed), Sustainable Development or Malignant Growth? Perspectives of Pacific Island Women, (Marama Publications, Suva, Fiji, 1994, ISBN 982-326-001-X). It really is worth going out of your way to get hold of this book - and you might have to.
