- * Some of the material used in this article was collected during two years of collaboration with Professor Robert Manne on a project funded by the Australian Research Council on the separation of part‐Aboriginal children from their parents. I am grateful to Professor Manne for his patience, his criticism, his constant support and the leads he gave me. I also owe gratitude to Alex Tyrrell, Richard Broome and Graham Holton for their advice and to two anonymous referees for their constructive criticism. My special thanks go to Dr Emilio Quevedo, an expert in tropical diseases at the Wellcome Institute in Oxford, who first pointed out the effect of malnutrition and hookworm on the hair of dark‐skinned children.
