Whilst there are popular ideas about which champion Aboriginal
environmental knowledge, many of these are based more on romantic
notions than on any detailed understanding of what might be the
content of this knowledge. This book is based on a grounded and
broad assessment of less well known details of Aboriginal knowledge
and provides both a great deal of detail and a new assessment of
rituals and practices. Aboriginal environmental knowledge is
examined here as an integrated source of both religious and
scientific knowledge. An important finding is that Aboriginal
environmental knowledge also includes knowledge about education for
attitudes considered appropriate for survival. Though evidence for
this is readily available in the literature, it has not been part
of current depictions of Aboriginal environmental knowledge.
