As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer asks questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces indigenous teachings that consider plants and animals to be our oldest teachers. Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take you on a journey that is as mythic as it is scientific, as sacred as it is historical. Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist and woman, Kimmerer tries to show how other living beings offer us, humans gifts and lessons.
