Abstract
B. G. BURTON-BRADLEY is the pioneer of psychiatry in New Guinea and Papua. Reports on his rich clinical experience and on his research have been published in previous issues of this review. The papers which follow give an account of the prepsychiatric era in New Guinea and of Burton-Bradley's clinical observations in the first thousand referrals. The interpretation of temporary states of possession observed in the New Guinea Highlands is controversial. K-F. KocH continues the debate on this subject and introduces new data from the Jale people of the Central Mountains of West Guinea (cf. Transcultural Psychiatric Research 6 (1969): 95-102, and previous issues).
