Ya̦nomamö / Napoleon A. Chagnon.
Based on the author's extensive fieldwork, this classic ethnography, now in its fifth edition, focuses on the Yanomamo.

This new edition includes events and changes that have occurred since 1992, including a recent trip by the author to the Brazilian Yanomamo in 1995. -- Amazon
