In "Braiding Sweetgrass", the author describes how her Native American heritage meshes with her training as a botanist, and invites the reader to rethink industrialized society's relationship with the natural world and humankind's role in it. She writes vividly and compellingly. But as these are several essays loosely linked, the pacing is a bit uneven, and some parts dragged a bit. Still a worthwhile read, though.
