    Summary:

    Inuit qaujimajatuqangit--which means a complete body of knowledge and experience passed from generation to generation--is a collection of contributions by Inuit Elders. It not only helps preserve important knowledge and tradition, but also provides an Inuit perspective on personal growth and development, and how we relate to each other, to other living beings, and to the environment.
