The Gaia Atlas of First Peoples: A Future for the Indigenous World is a valuable refreence book which should be in all school libraries. The Forward states: "In the last decades indigenous peoples have suffered from the consequences of wome of the most destructive aspects of our development. They have been separated from their traditional lands.... and forced to fit into societies in which they feel like aliens. They have protested and resisted. Their call is for control over their own lives, the space to live and the freedom to live in their own ways. And it is a call not merely to save their own territories, but the Earth itself."
