Les guérisseurs itinérants kallawaya sont originaires des vallées de Charazani dans les Andes orientales, à mi-chemin du lac Titicaca et de l'Amazonie, sur le territoire d'une ancienne chefferie pré inca. Durant l'époque coloniale et jusqu'à nos jours, ils diffusèrent dans les Andes d'abord, de Quito au Chili, dans tout le continent ensuite, de Panama à Buenos Aires, leur savoir médical né de la rencontre de plusieurs traditions (Pukina, Arawak, Aymara, Quechua) et transmis par initiation. Grâce à une patiente et obstinée enquête menée durant quinze années dans l'amitié de ses informateurs, Louis Girault a pu réunir une collection de plantes médicinales, d'éléments organiques et minéraux, ainsi que des amullettes, utilisés dans les pratiques thérapeutiques et magiques des Kallawaya. Cet inventaire quasi exhaustif de mille éléments, rapportés au vu des classifications locales et confrontés aux anciennes chroniques d'histoire naturelle, permet d'étudier tant les taxonomies indigènes et la pharmacopée traditionnelle que les différents codes, sémantiques et symboliques, employés par ces guérisseurs. Cet ouvrage constitue un instrument de travail irremplaçable pour les hommes de science et de terrain. Botanistes, médecins, ethnologues, archéologues, historiens, ont besoin de tels inventaires systématiques afin d'avancer dans le déchiffrement des cultures américaines, notamment celles qui se trouvent au carrefour des Andes et de l'Amazonie.

Darrell A Posey died in March 2001 after a long and distinguished career in anthropology and ecology. Kayapó Ethnoecology and Culture presents a selection of his writings that result from 25 years of work with the Kayapó Indians of the Amazon Basin. These writings describe the dispersal of the Kayapó sub-groups and explain how with this diaspora useful biological species and natural resource management strategies also spread. However the Kayapó are threatened with extinction like many of the inhabitants of the Amazon basin. The author is adamant that it is no longer satisfactory for s
