Abstract

The Audiovisuals Editor has embarked on a new format in which every second or third issue will contain a comprehensive section of reviews under the direction of an expert in the field of consideration. It is our hope to provide, in addition to the general reviews, a resource for scholars and teachers. In this issue David Horr of Brandeis University presents the first in the series: Primate Behavior films. Professor Horr is now completing a film on free-ranging behavior and ecology of orang-utans, shot during his nearly three years of field research on that species in eastern Borneo. Donald Miller is currently developing a review section on Archeology, Nancie Gonzalez on Urban Anthropology and Scott Robinson on Problems in Politics and Development. We are also planning special issues on Physical Anthropology, Medical Anthropology, Hunters and Gatherers, Horticulturalists, Pastoralists and Peasants. We hope that this compilation of film reviews on a single subject and similar review sections in the future will not only provide a resource for teaching, but will offer standards for specialists in anthropology making films in the field.
