Papua New Guinea has more missionaries per head of population than anywhere else in the world. In the competition for converts they no longer bring just a Bible and a bush knife but every modem convenience and the latest in communications technology. All the missions claim a corner on the truth, and some even accuse their rivals of being agents of the devil. Julian Pettifer exposes this costly, confusing and, at times, undignified scramble for souls.
