Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World

Autor Tyson Yunkaporta
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 apr 2024
In SAND TALK, Tyson Yunkaporta looks at global systems from an Indigenous perspective. He asks how contemporary life diverges from the pattern of creation. How does this affect us? How can we do things differently? This remarkable book provides a template for living. It's about how lines and symbols and shapes can help us make sense of the world. It's about how we learn and how we remember. It's about talking to everybody and listening carefully. It's about finding different ways to look at things. SAND TALK is about everything from echidnas to evolution, cosmology to cooking, sex and science and spirits to Schrodinger's cat. Most of all it's about Indigenous thinking, and how it can save the world.

Recenzii

Sand Talk unpacks for us something originally genius about Indigenous thought, which has for too long been dismissed as archaic folk knowledge from old oral cultures of interest only to academics and fetishists. This book shows how vital and alive and essential Indigenous ways of being and thinking are. Yunkaporta is so smart, funny, and accessible. Everyone needs to read this.” — Tommy Orange, bestselling author of There There
“An astonishing revelation of ancient Aboriginal wisdom as it applies to science and modern times. It’s one of the best books I ever read, and I’ve been reading books for 80 years. There’s nothing like it. It leaves you gasping. If you care about yourself, the world around you, and where you come from, you’d better read it. You won’t put it down.” — Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden Life of Dogs and Growing Old
“This is a book of cultural and philosophic intrigue. Read it.” — Bruce Pascoe, author of Dark Emu
“An exhilarating meditation on different ways of knowing and being. Sand Talk is playful, profound, and fiercely original.” — Billy Griffiths, author of Deep Time Dreaming
