| This important anthology by Native scholars is dedicated to the work of Vine Deloria Jr. Deloria's varied and challenging contributions are recounted, applied, and extended, often in critical Delorian style. But, as in much of Deloria's work, the style is the scaffolding for fundamental dismantling of the sacrosanct Euro-American scholarly world view. |
