A journey to Ecuador's rainforest, this part-memoir, part-poetry compilation reflects upon the effects of environmental destruction in that nation while simultaneously recounting the author's personal experiences as a health professional there. From traditional healing ceremonies performed by shamans to the knowledge gained from Shuar and Quecha Indians regarding the degrading impact of oil-company drilling and local forest cutting, this account shares the lessons learned from an inspiring group of people.
