"Corn. Chocolate. Fishing hooks. Boats that float. Recorded history and folklore. Lifesaving disinfectant. Forest-fire management. Our lives would be unrecognizable without these and countless other scientific discoveries and technological inventions from Indigenous North Americans. From transportation to civil engineering, hunting technologies to astronomy, and architecture to agriculture, Indigenous Ingenuity is an unforgettable introduction to STEM fields, featuring interactive activities, recipes, and science experiments. This groundbreaking book reframes many scientific discoveries through the lens of Indigenous knowledge and cultures. Readers of any age are invited to embrace the interconnectedness of all life and practice environmental responsibility."-- Front jacket flap.
