‘This volume should be held in all serious libraries … concerned with anthropology or with a less sexist look at human behaviour … a classic.’

‘… a leap forward in Aboriginal anthropology by an increasing number of young “issue oriented” and “interpretive ethnographers”. Daughters of the Dreaming is an outstanding example of this new breed.’
