Buddy Mikaere provides a highly readable historical overview of early settlement in New Zealand, and examines the impact of colonisation and later a developing urban world on M?ori and their traditional way of life.

Today, the importance of marae and community remains strong, as do many time-honoured rituals.

The renaissance of M?ori culture has included the revival of the language and the flourishing of creative arts, including:

whakairo - carving kapa haka and haka - performing arts waka ama - outrigger canoe racing t? moko - tattooing music, arts and crafts.

M?ori in Aotearoa New Zealand introduces visitors and locals alike to the culture and customs of M?ori in contemporary New Zealand.
