In Volume I our anthropologist carried out fieldwork in the South Pacific, travelled widely to represent anthropology, and enjoyed world foods. Here he extends his life work with international assignments and food studies. In an unexplained tragedy he loses his wife and faces court accusations in Switzerland. He returns to face life in Vancouver forcing himself to complete his international work. He completes his term as editor of Current Anthropology and discovers new challenges on the internet where he establishes a multimedia anthropology journal and a guide to his city's exceptional restaurants. Throughout his writing he presents vivid accounts of unique experiences - people, lands and foods.
