COMMENDED, 2013 VICTORIAN PREMIER'S LITERARY AWARDS, NON-FICTION
An updated, stunning new edition of a Magabala classic, Traditional Healers is a generous and authorised sharing of the words and traditions of the ngangkari, the traditional healers of the Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara Lands, encompassing 350,000 square kilometres of the remote western desert. Acknowledged, respected and accepted, these ngangkari work collaboratively with hospitals and health professionals even beyond this region, working hand-in-hand with Western medical practitioners. For thousands of years, they have nurtured the physical, emotional and social well-being of their people, and now they share their wisdom, natural healing techniques and cultural history through life stories, spectacular photography and artwork. This new edition includes 10 new ngangkari stories.
