O knihe

Two themes common to Guam are the difficulties of passing traditional healing knowledge on to family members and gaining access to medicinal plants." "...it is vitally important for this knowledge to survive the centuries-long journey of colonization on Guam as well as the uber-militarization of the island since 1944 that have placed indigenous knowledge and practices at risk of extinction in as few as two generations. This knowledge and these practices have been preserved and passed down through traditional means for many centuries. It is essential that ways be employed to preserve and perpetuate this knowledge using criteria from the past be re-examined if these healing traditions are to survive the twenty-first century."
