Talking it Through, edited by Miranda Forsyth and Richard Eves and published by ANU Press in 2015, is a peer reviewed research collection on sorcery accusation violence in Papua New Guinea and neighbouring Melanesian countries and on policy and community responses to it, drawn from two 2013 multidisciplinary conferences. Its authority rests on standard university press review and on the editors' established research standing in Pacific studies. As an edited collection its individual chapters vary in method and focus, so a specific claim benefits from checking which contributor's chapter it comes from.
