The book is based on the authors’ field materials and archival sources reflecting the situation of industrial impact on the indigenous peoples of the region under study. The review summarizes the content, critically assesses the methodological framework of the study and formulates the strengths and weaknesses of the research in the context of similar anthropological studies.
