This remarkable book is about everything from echidnas to evolution, 
cosmology to cooking, sex and science and spirits to Schrödinger’s cat.

Tyson Yunkaporta looks at global systems from an Indigenous perspective. 
He asks how contemporary life diverges from the pattern of creation. How 
does this affect us? How can we do things differently?

/Sand Talk/ provides a template for living. It’s about how lines and 
symbols and shapes can help us make sense of the world. It’s about how 
we learn and how we remember. It’s about talking to everybody and 
listening carefully. It’s about finding different ways to look at things.

Most of all it’s about Indigenous thinking, and how it can save the world.
