About this product
Product Information
A graceful, illuminating study of the wisdom of the natural world, from a world-renowned indigenous scientist As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass, Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take us on a journey that is every bit as mythic as it is scientific, as sacred as it is historical, as clever as it is wise (Elizabeth Gilbert). 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. In a rich braid of reflections that range from the creation of Turtle Island to the forces that threaten its flourishing today, she circles toward a central argument- that the awakening of a wider ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings will we be capable of understanding the generosity of the earth, and learn to give our own gifts in return.

- o***9 (513)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat value book in new condition as described. Unfortunately both this book and another ordered in the same package suffered damage to a corner whilst in transit. Both books were packed tightly but didn't seem to have much protection on the corners. I have bought from this seller before without problem and have since placed another order.Gardeners' World: A Year in a Small Garden by Frances Tophill Hardback (#166730433547)
- d***u (202)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSuch quick delivery. Great value for money! Condition was excellent. Item was as described and even more beautiful in real life. Great quality. Fab seller Only thing was it arrived in packaging I don’t think is suitable for hardbacks and it had a rip in it. Luckily the bubble wrapped helped, but the book could have been damaged which would have been a shame as the sellers kept it in perfect condition. Would highly recommend this seller though!Six of Crows & Crooked Kingdom: Collector's Editions by Leigh Bardugo (#164938561196)
