Fresh Banana Leaves: Healing Indigenous Landscapes through Indigenous Science by Jessica Hernandez, PhD

Did not finish book. Stopped at 27%.

Major editing issues made it unreadable. Misspellings and grammar errors yes but also it is very repetitive like the exact same sentence appears in multiple spots in the same section and that has happened more that once.  It isn’t very well organized or sourced.  Honestly, it seems like a strong essay that just doesn’t have enough substance to be a good standalone book so it is just a hodgepodge of disconnected thoughts and repetition.  It’s too bad.  That is what publishers and editors are supposed to do and I think they failed the author.
