""This beautiful book can completely change how we approach science, using both Indigenous and Western approaches, and how we can work collaboratively to help foster balance in nature.""--Suzanne Simard, bestselling author of Finding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of the Forest ""In Medicine Wheel for the Planet, Jennifer Grenz reminds us that we are an integral part of the ever-changing environment. By asking questions about that environment from a relational lens, we can turn away from strategies that seek to restore a purity that never existed and turn toward meaningful collaboration with our plant relatives. I will be returning to and recommending this book for years to come.""--Patty Krawec, author of Becoming Kin: An Indigenous Call to Unforgetting the Past and Reimagining Our Future
