Today's Arctic communities have all the comforts of modern living. Yet the Inuit survived in this harsh landscape for hundreds of years with nothing but the land and their own ingenuity. This book explores the amazing innovations of traditional Inuit and how their ideas continue to echo around the world. Some inventions are still familiar to us: the one-person watercraft known as a kayak retains its Inuit name. Other innovations have been replaced by modern technology: slitted snow goggles protected Inuit eyes long before sunglasses arrived on the scene. Many more Inuit innovations are explored here, including: Dog sleds, Kids' stuff, Shelter, Food preservation, Clothing, Medicine. More than 40 Inuit items and ideas are showcased through dramatic photos and captivating language, explaining how these objects were made, to their impact on contemporary culture
