Reviews
'In this theoretically engaging new book, she explores how analysis of a "buffer zone" in northern CAR and its dynamics of raiding and hunting can enrich social science. The book is ethnographically very rich, and presents in an engaging way the vast experience of the author in northern CAR.' Valerio Colosio, PoLAR Online
