"Cannibals is a work of philosophy and ideas … A welcome
addition to the library of a new generation of scholars and
activists who are seeking a philosophical framework for their work
in indigenous studies." —American Indian Quarterly
"An early text that inspired the start of the anti-civilization
movement … Writing from a Native American perspective, Forbes
maintains a steady and humble tone throughout the text … It is the
kind of history one doesn't need to read twice to absorb it … I
think it's crucial that people read books like
this." —Razorcake
