Book excerpt: The Arakmbut are an indigenous people in the southeastern Peruvian rain forest who have survived with their culture intact despite encounters with missionaries since the 1950s and a gold rush into their territory over the past 15 years. This final volume of the series looks at the growing consciousness among the Arakmbut of their own rights and the growing development of indigenous rights internationally, and describes the importance of the invisible spirit world in the Arakmbut legal system.
