Abstract:
"Other ways of knowing examines perceptions and practices that challenge the narrow perspective of the Western world, and provides answers to the complex questions that face us as we move into the next millennium Instead of trying to master nature and suffer the consequences whcih that entails, we can follow the example of the Lakota shaman and work with nature, knowing that the world is forge of relationships. ... gives us the wisdom necessary to arrest our headlong race toward destruction by rediscovering the ancestral teachings that guided humanity for millenia"-- Back cover.
