Indigenous ways of understanding and interacting with the
natural world are characterized as Traditional Ecological Knowledge
(TEK), which derives from emphasizing relationships and connections
among species. This book examines TEK and its strengths in relation
to Western ecological knowledge and evolutionary philosophy.
Pierotti takes a look at the scientific basis of this approach,
focusing on different concepts of communities and connections among
living entities, the importance of understanding the meaning of
relatedness in both spiritual and biological creation, and a
careful comparison with evolutionary ecology. The text examines the
themes and principles informing this knowledge, and offers a look
at the complexities of conducting research from an indigenous
perspective.
