The Descent of Man by Charles Darwin VI. Sanity Press, 2020.
In this must-read book Darwin notes that the indigenous had an expression: “All My Relations” — indicative of their sensibility of humans being just one creature embedded in the web of life. They perceived the other fauna and flora as cousins. He analyzes the process of descent to the current “All My Gadgets.”
Bold and sagacious.
