Many Exchanges: archaeology, history, community and the work of Isabel McBryde

Ingereth Macfarlane and Mary-Jane Mountain and Robert Paton (eds)

This book celebrates the work of Isabel McBryde, a founder of the discipline of archaeology in Australia. She has been 'a prime mover in the appreciation and protection of our cultural heritage', as John Mulvaney writes in this volume. Any history of the discipline requires a close attention to the development of her work. Her longterm contributions to the understanding of indigenous culture and heritage in Australia are explored in this collection of valuable new cross-disciplinary studies by leaders in the fields of archaeology, history, heritage management, linguistics and anthropology. The collection will be welcomed by all who have an interest in the history and the future of these disciplines.
