BRAIDING SWEETGRASS : INDIGENOUS WISDOM, SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE AND THE TEACHINGS

In Braiding Sweetgrass, Kimmerer brings these two ways of knowledge together. Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist, a mother, and a woman, Kimmerer shows how other living beings - asters and goldenrod, strawberries and squash, salamanders, algae, and sweetgrass - offer us gifts and lessons, even if we've forgotten how to hear their voices.
