description: Placing the Kayapo and the Yanomami in their respective historical and evolutionary contexts, anthropologist Rabben examines the relationship of each group to Brazilian society and the wider world. She examines strategies for dealing with the incursion of the outside and compares the ability of the groups to maintain cultural integrity while drawing conclusions about the fate of indigenous people in general.
