| book description |
De la autora del gran bestseller del New York Times, Una trenza de hierba sagrada, una visión audaz e inspiradora sobre cómo orientar nuestras vidas en torno a la gratitud, la reciprocidad y la comunidad, basándose en las lecciones del mundo natural. Mientras Robin Wall Kimmerer cosecha guillomos junto a los pájaros, reflexiona sobre la ética de la reciprocidad que yace en el corazón de la economÃa del regalo. ¿Cómo podemos aprender de la sabidurÃa indÃgena y del mundo vegetal para reimaginar lo que más valoramos? Nuestra economÃa se basa en la escasez, la competencia y el acaparamiento de recursos, y hemos entregado nuestros valores a un sistema que daña activamente lo que amamos. Mientras tanto, la relación del guillomo con el mundo natural es una encarnación de la reciprocidad, la interconexión y la gratitud. El árbol distribuye su riqueza --su abundancia de moras dulces y jugosas-- para satisfacer las necesidades de su comunidad natural. Y esta distribución garantiza su propia supervivencia. Como explica Kimmerer, «El guillomo nos muestra otro modelo, basado en la reciprocidad, en el que la riqueza procede de la calidad de tus relaciones, no de la ilusión de la autosuficiencia». Como escribe Elizabeth Gilbert, Robin Wall Kimmerer es «una gran maestra, y sus palabras son un himno de amor al mundo». Los dones del guillomo es un antÃdoto contra las relaciones rotas y los objetivos equivocados de nuestro tiempo, y un recordatorio de que «acaparar no nos salvará, todo florecimiento es mutuo». ----- From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Braiding Sweetgrass, a bold and inspiring vision for how to orient our lives around gratitude, reciprocity, and community, based on the lessons of the natural world. 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 serviceberry's relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth--its abundance of sweet, juicy berries--to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, ""Serviceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency."" As Elizabeth Gilbert writes, Robin Wall Kimmerer is ""a great teacher, and her words are a hymn of love to the world."" The Serviceberry is an antidote to the broken relationships and misguided goals of our times, and a reminder that ""hoarding won't save us, all flourishing is mutual.""
