About this productProduct InformationVine Deloria, Jr., leading Native American scholar and author of the best-selling God is Red , addresses the conflict between mainstream scientific theory about our world and the ancestral worldview of Native Americans. Claiming that science has created a largely fictional scenario for American Indians in prehistoric North America, Deloria offers an alternative view of the continent's history as seen through the eyes and memories of Native Americans. Further, he warns future generations of scientists not to repeat the ethnocentric omissions and fallacies of the past by dismissing Native oral tradition as mere legends.Product IdentifiersPublisherFulcrum PublishingISBN-101555913881ISBN-139781555913885eBay Product ID (ePID)1042050Product Key FeaturesFormatTrade PaperbackPublication Year1997LanguageEnglishDimensionsWeight13.9 OzWidth6in.Height0.9in.Length9in.Additional Product FeaturesDewey Edition21Dewey Decimal970/.004/97Grade fromFourth GradeAge LevelTradeCopyright Date1998AuthorVine Deloria Jr.Number of Pages288 PagesEdition DescriptionReprintLc Classification NumberE98.F6d35 1997Reviews"This is Vine Deloria's best book yet. ...
