Why Is Ralph Bulmer Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Ralph Neville Hermon Bulmer was a twentieth-century ethnobiologist who worked in Papua New Guinea, particularly with the Kalam people. From 1974 he made a radical shift by changing the role of his Kalam informants and collaborators, allowing them to shape the purpose of ethnography and to make them authors rather than consultants. Bulmer's tree frog is named after him.
