	1	Warry, Wayne. UNFINISHED DREAMS: COMMUNITY HEALING AND THE REALITY OF ABORIGINAL SELF-GOVERNMENT. University of Toronto Press, Toronto, 1998. 323 pp, 8vo (9" H), soft cover. ISBN 0802079172 "In this book Wayne Warry argues that self-government can be realized only when individuals are secure in their cultural identity and can contribute to the transformation of their communities. (He) draws on his reasearch among Nishnawbe communities, as well as on the reports and recommendations of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples. Case studies are used to illustrated the proceses of community development and cultural revitalization that are essential precursors to self-government. Warry's notion of 'community healing' involves efforts to rebuild the human foundations for self-governing Aboriginal societies. The book analyses key areas such as health care and the judicial and political systems where Aboriginal peoples are engaged in practical everyday struggles to improve their communities. Central to these Aboriginal approaches to change is the need for holistic solutions to complex social problems. The search for t h ese solutions is set against the broader political environment, which includes Euro-Canadian assumptions, government, policy, and post-colonial practices. (It) also addresses the nature of applied social scientific research in Aboriginal communit ie s and the need for collaborative, culturally appropriate research methods."
