vi Preface

Promotional Book Quote

Encompassing theoretical, empirical, and experiential standpoints concerning place-based
knowledge systems, this unique book argues for a transformation of (science) education’s
intellectual tradition of thinking that emphasizes individual cognition. In its place, the book
offers a wisdom tradition of thinking, living, and being that emphasizes community sur-
vival in harmony within itself and with Mother Earth. (Glen Aikenhead)
