| book description |

'This book will nourish your soul, heart, and mind' Anthony Doerr As Indigenous scientist and author of Braiding Sweetgrass Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy. How, she asks, can we learn from Indigenous wisdom and the plant world to reimagine what we value most? Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberryâ€™s relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealthâ€”its abundance of sweet, juicy berriesâ€”to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution insures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, â€œServiceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.â€ NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE AUTUMN BY THE NEW YORK TIMES, GUARDIAN, TIME, OPRAH DAILY, LIT HUB, PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, BOOKPAGE
