With a long history and deep connection to the Earth’s resources, indigenous peoples have an intimate understanding and ability to observe the impacts linked to climate change. Traditional ecological knowledge and tribal experience play a key role in developing future scientific solutions for adaptation to the impacts. The book explores climate-related issues for indigenous communities in the United States, including loss of traditional knowledge, forests and ecosystems, food security and traditional foods, as well as water, Arctic sea ice loss, permafrost thaw and relocation. The book also highlights how tribal communities and programs are responding to the changing environments. Fifty authors from tribal communities, academia, government agencies and NGOs contributed to the book. Previously published in Climatic Change, Volume 120, Issue 3, 2013.

Robert and Yolanda Murphy spent years studying the Shoshone and Bannock Indians during the 1950s. They were hired by the Department of Justice to conduct research on Native American tribes who had lost territory due to the advancing frontier. Their research led to the writing of this book, 'Shoshone-Bannock Subsistence and Society' which focuses on the groups' social structure, political identity, and seasonal activity. The book also examines the impact of ecology on the tribes' social structures and documents the Shoshone and Bannock territories in Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. The authors' extensive research, including ethnographic and historical research, is presented in a detailed, insightful manner that provides a comprehensive understanding of these tribes' way of life.
