Recenzii
"[Wisdom Engaged] gives compelling evidence that Indigenous health is fundamentally tied to land, language, and culture.... Wisdom Engaged shows that decolonisation means a return to Indigenous peoples of the power they once had over their own health and well-being. This is a crucial first step on the long road to reconciliation." -- Jeff Kochan, Canadian Dimension Magazine -- 20191111
"This text will be of value to novice readers seeking an entry point to learn more about indigenous traditional healing practices. Summing Up: Recommended." -- S. Perreault, CHOICE Magazine -- 20200701
"Wisdom Engaged examines the different aspects of traditional knowledge and its usage in daily routines that support a healthy lifestyle... Readers will encounter rich evidence of the interconnectivity that Indigenous peoples' well-being has with traditions, communities, and culture.... [Editor Leslie Main Johnson] accomplishes her goal: to center traditional knowledge in exploring methods to advance individual and community health as well as healing in northwestern North American Indigenous communities. All those interested in traditional knowledge, Western biomedicine, or Indigenous and environmental health should read this compelling book." -- Kathie Beebe, Native American and Indigenous Studies Journal, Spring 2022
