Drawing upon more than 20 years of study and field research, this book examines the patterns of cultural adaptation among the people of the two main ecological zones of the Amazon: the terra firme (Amazon basin) and the varzea (floodplain). It shows how human societies develop and survive in what appears to be a luxuriant Garden of Eden.
