Summary: Traditionally, important books concerning animals report scientific views. Indigenous Creatures, Native Knowledge, and the Arts is an important book concerning animals that reports artistic views held by a wide array of people from a variety of cultures. Considering that art was the method used by the earliest members of our species to represent animals, this says a great deal about us and our biophilic views. It s fascinating, and no wonder, as we all have some desire to connect with other species, and we can rely on this book, which is written with scholarly care. Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
