Gatherers by Nature

Gatherers by Nature is a groundbreaking exploration of the significance of gathering in human history and its relevance to the modern world. Drawing on a variety of sources, including archaeological evidence, ethnographic studies, and historical accounts, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the role of gathering in shaping human societies and cultures.
From the earliest hominids to modern hunter-gatherer societies, gathering has been a fundamental part of the human experience. This book examines the technologies and techniques used by gatherers, the social organization of gathering, and the relationship between gathering and gender, family, and community. It also explores the challenges facing gathering societies in the modern world, such as habitat loss, climate change, and the encroachment of industrial society.
Gatherers by Nature is unique in its focus on the role of gathering in human history. Most studies of human subsistence have focused on hunting and agriculture, while gathering has been largely overlooked. This book fills this gap in the literature by providing a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the role of gathering in human societies.
Gatherers by Nature is essential reading for anyone interested in anthropology, archaeology, history, or the environment. It is also a valuable resource for policymakers and practitioners working to support gathering societies and promote sustainable livelihoods.
In addition to its scholarly value, Gatherers by Nature is also a beautifully written and engaging book. Author Pasquale De Marco brings the world of gathering to life through vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes. Readers will come away from this book with a new appreciation for the role of gathering in human history and its importance in the modern world.
Gatherers by Nature is a timely and important book that sheds new light on a neglected aspect of human history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the origins of human society and the challenges facing humanity today.
