Described as an attempt to increase understanding of one of Man's simplest and possibly oldest technologies, this book brings an engineering perspective to formal variability in these weapons. What is gained on the Aborigine's swing by hunting effectiveness is lost on his roundabout by investment in manufacture. The mathematics, however, will be no easy ride for most readers.
