A Time Before Deception

In the introduction of his book, Thomas W. Cooper writes, "A person who does not speak truth must not know reality." This quote is interesting in the fact that it presents the question, what is truth? Cooper goes on to write about uncovering the "fork" of communication and its pertainance to the Native American tradition of it. The thing that I find intruiging about the forms of indigenous communication is that it almost seemes more direct in some aspects, for instantce, they don't need a building or a church service. Cooper notes that their surroundings are all they need for communicationand that they are at home.
