Taylor's detailed account of Western Arnhem Land art adds significantly to the work begun by Morphy and Munn concerning one of the most important art-producing regions of the world. ... detailed and well-written study ... interesting analysis of how art is tied to the social fabric of Kunwinjku life. * Russell Sharman, Journal fo the Anthropological Society of Oxford *
