An Appreciation of Difference: WEH Stanner and Aboriginal Australia

By: Hinkson, Melinda

Stanner was a public intellectual whose work reached beyond the walls of the academy, and he remains a highly significant figure in Aboriginal affairs and Australian anthropology. Educated by Radcliffe-Brown in Sydney and Malinowski in London, he undertook anthropological work in Australia, Africa and the Pacific. This book draws together some of Australia's leading academics working in Aboriginal studies to provide a historical and analytical context for Stanner's work, as well as demonstrating the continuing relevance of his writings.
