After 500 years, the world's huge debt to the wisdom of the Indians of the Americas has finally been explored in all its vivid drama by anthropologist Jack Weatherford. He traces the crucial contributions made by the Indians to our federal system of government, our democratic institutions, modern medicine, agriculture, architecture, and ecology, and in this astonishing, ground-breaking book takes a giant step toward recovering a true American history.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"By showing how the world was changed through these contributions, the author gives a greater appreciation of the Indians of America to readers. A fine synthesis book for global studies programs as well as American history." ( School Library Journal)

I loved this book. very interesting and the performance is enjoyable. Other works by this author are well worth a read.

Fascinating

The author gives many examples across many industries of Native American contributions and how they’ve shaped the world we know today.

The storytelling wasn’t so gripping (at times like reading a shopping list) but the content was fascinating.

Brilliant insight into the extent of indigenous contributions to the modern world

Great writing, really shines a light on a not well known topic. Highly recommended read

Phenomenal, really insightful book!

I very nearly gave up on this book because for the first 5 chapters it completely centres the voice of the colonialists, rather than that of the Indians, as the title suggests it will do. But as the book progresses, the Indian voice and experience is centered more. An interesting listen, but doesn't really give you what it promises to, in my opinion.

It does get better

Leaps to conclusions, boring and biased in the extreme. Would not recommend this book to anyone

Inaccurate and biased
