"I love this beautiful book. The wisdom of Aboriginal ways of thinking and acting are outlined in context of our modern world leadership challenges. The insights of Paul Callaghan—an Aboriginal man with leadership in Western organizations—are like leaves of practical input floating down a quiet stream of wisdom. It’s not a harsh, angry rejection of Western views and practices; it’s a gentle walk to a better view. The insights about leadership are powerful and timely. This should be required reading for anyone entering a leadership position in any walk of life." — Dr. Bruce Perry, co-author with Oprah Winfrey of the #1 New York Times bestselling book What Happened To You?"Packed with timeless wisdom, practical life exercises, and written with a heaping dose of kindness and compassion, Paul Callaghan and Uncle Paul Gordon meet readers whoever they are or wherever they see their station in life. This gem of a book brings two worlds together—the aboriginal and Western worlds—imparting the wisdom urgently needed by all humanity at this time. . . . The Dreaming Path teaches us how to live our life with deep respect, kinship, and love for everything that exists. What a gift!" — Glenn Aparicio Parry, two-time Nautilus Award-winning author of Original Thinking and Original Politics
