In this stimulating contribution to Indigenous philosophizing, Burkhart promotes the elaboration of Indigenous metaphysics and epistemology in a tradition he locates both with his mentor Vine Deloria, Jr. and in the land. Simultaneously, in an assessment spanning from Thales and Aristotle to A. N. Whitehead and Arne Naess, Burkhart identifies some limitations of Western philosophy in comparison to Indigenous philosophy, particularly when Western thinkers are hampered by the narratives of coloniality that they reiterate.
