You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.\" ANTOINE DE SAINT-EXUPERY\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWild plants have for long, been used by herbalists and folk healers for medicine. Many insights into the value of indigenous plants were gathered by observing animals heal themselves by ingesting plants in their environment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst Nations peoples of North America related certain qualities of animals to plants, giving powers of strength, bravery, swiftness, wisdom, or patience to plants and in turn, to themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is dedicated to dogs, wolves, foxes, coyotes and other members of genus canis.\u003c\/p\u003e Common names are often scorned by taxonomists in favor of the binomial system of plant identification developed by Linnaeus. In this book you will find reference to both, a less dogmatic approach if you will. \u003cp\u003eI was a wolf cub (cub scout) when younger, and this may be what led me to this writing this collection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOr maybe being married to a beautiful woman who teaches dream work, mythology and depth psychology has rubbed off. \u003ci\u003eWomen Who Run With the Wolves\u003c\/i\u003e by Clarissa Pinkola Estés is the foundation of one course, and of course, my dogged unconscious can run wild. To quote Clarissa: \u003ci\u003e\"It's not by accident that the pristine wilderness of our planet disappears as the understanding of our own inner wild nature fades. It is not so difficult to comprehend why old forests and old women are viewed as not very important resource. It is not such a mystery. It is not so coincidental that wolves and coyotes, bears and wildish women have similar reputations.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Dale Rogers Rh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1494910462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781494910464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/05\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.55d","brand":"Robert Dale Rogers Rh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439434248447,"sku":"9781494910464","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_83d0543d-a16c-4b38-af21-8a73e98b15c4.jpg?v=1777177604","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dogwood-wolf-willow-and-other-robert-dale-rogers-rh-9781494910464","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
