The societies and cultures of the islands of New Guinea, Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia are examined. We give special attention to the human colonization of the islands of Oceania; male cults and gender relations in New Guinea; relationships between humans and the environment of various islands; the Polynesian cultures of Hawaii and Rapa Nui (Easter Island); and the historic role of the United States in the coral atolls of Micronesia.
