A study of environment, culture, and society in Northern Luzon. One of the most exquisite ethnographic and Anthropological projects ever performed and assembled into a masterpiece of ancient Indigenous lost history this book is a must have for any researcher, historian, or lover of lost and hidden ancient mysteries based in science and viewed through an academic looking glass. While the original was extremely large, very hard to obtain, and extremely expensive, Atlas Ifugao Redux has been condensed, transcribed, and translated to fit on any bookshelf while keeping every letter, plate, and image as the original included. I believe as an Anthropologist specializing in the Philippines SE-Asia, Pacific, and Americas it is of the greatest importance to not only make available these great works to the peoples and cultural groups they are based upon but the regional and global audience as well regardless of socio-economic ability. Atlas Ifugao will take you down an ancient lost mountain-top terraforming civilization that you may never come back from .
