Improving American Indian Health Care: The Western Cherokee Experience

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Exploring the relationship between Native Americans and the natural world, Biodiversity and Native America questions the common view that indigenous people had minimal ecological impact in North America. Introducing a variety of perspectives - ethnobotanical, anthropological, archaeological, and biological - the expert contributors show that Native Americans were active managers of natural ecological systems. The book covers groups from the sophisticated agriculturalists of the Mississippi region to the low-density hunter-gatherers of arid western North America.
