description: This study provides an account of the relationship between the Amazonian people and their botanical environment. It is based on the author's 10 years of ethnological and botanical research among the Tupi-Guarani-speaking Indians (especially the Ka'apor) of eastern Amazonia, and aims to rectify much of the ignorance about the history of Amazonia and its diverse peoples, habitats and resources.
