马林诺夫斯基在《西太平洋的航海者》中以民族志的写作手法记录了新几内亚东部区域所特有的库拉贸易及运作规则，还用大量篇幅记录了特罗布里恩群岛土著人的生活、神话和巫术。本书为当代读者迫切了解世界上不同人的生活提供了一个很好的契机和窗口。阅读本书，读者不仅可以略微了解马林诺夫斯基du创的田野工作方法，更能感受到社会学家对人类的关怀。

《西太平洋的航海者》是马林诺夫斯基的惊世之作，在人类学史上具有里程碑式意义。它以民族志的写作手法记录了新几内亚东部区域所特有的库拉贸易及运作规则。在书中，作者以库拉为主线，对伴随库拉的巫术、神话、日常用品交易及食物分派等进行了详细的描述，包括对土著人社会关系及社会组织的深入探讨。作者在导论介绍了自己的民族志方法，该方法后来一直主导着当代人类学的走向，为后世人类学研究确立了科学的田野工作范式。

1.Before proceeding to the account of the Kula, it will be well to give a description of the methods used in the collecting of the ethnographic material. The results of scientific research in any branch of learning ought to be presented in a manner absolutely candid and above board. No one would dream of making an experimental contribution to physical or chemical science, without giving a detailed account of all the arrangements of the experiments; an exact description of the apparatus used; of the manner in which the observations were conducted; of their number; of the length of time devoted to them, and of the degree of approximation with which each measurement was made. In less exact sciences, as in biology or geology, this cannot be done as rigorously, but every student will his best to bring home to the reader all the conditions in which the experiment or the observations were made. In Ethnography, where a candid account of such data is perhaps even more necessary, it has unfortunately in the past not always been supplied with sufficient generosity, and many writers do not ply the full searchlight of methodic sincerity, as they move among their facts but produce them before us out of complete obscurity. 2. The Kula is a form of exchange, of extensive, inter-tribal character; it is carried on by communities inhabiting a wide ring of islands, which form a closed circuit. This circuit can be seen on Map V, where it is represented by the lines joining a number of islands to the North and East end of New Guinea. Along this route, articles of two kinds, and these two kinds only, are constantly travelling in opposite directions. In the direction of the hands of a clock, moves constantly one of these kinds--long necklaces of red shell, called soulava. In the opposite direction moves the other kind-- bracelets of white shell called mwali. Each of these articles, as it travels in its own direction on the closed circuit, meets on its way articles of the other class, and is constantly being exchanged for them. Every movement of the Kula articles, every detail of the transactions is fixed and regulated by a set of traditional rules and conventions, and some acts of the Kula are accompanied by an elaborate magical ritual and public ceremonies.
