ATA Book Club: The Wayfinders: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World

Hosted by Sandy Cardillo. In "The Wayfinders" Anthropologist Wade Davis takes the reader on a thrilling journey to celebrate the wisdom of the world’s indigenous cultures. In Polynesia we set sail with navigators whose ancestors settled the Pacific ten centuries before Christ. In the Amazon we meet the descendants of a true Lost Civilization, the people of the Anaconda. In the Andes we discover that the Earth is a living force, responding in a thousand ways to human spirituality. And in the far reaches of Australia we encounter Dreamtime, the all-embracing philosophy of the first humans to walk out of Africa. Readers will experience a wild and fascinating exploration of "forgotten" wisdom that remains with us and very much alive.
