“Dennison Berwick’s lucid account of living in a Yanomami community, and of the events surrounding its fight for survival, makes a good case for takings its intuitive wisdom seriously. He does not see the Yanomami in a nostalgic light. He simply argues for them making their own choices about how much to “progress”.
