This book also contains related essays by the Tzintzuntzan Hummingbird Habitat co-chairs Brenda Brown and Roberto Lindig-Cisneros, as well as archaeologists Jasinto Robles-Camacho and Arturo Oliveros-Morales, art historian Andrea Silva Cadena, composers Richard Festinger and Rodrigo Sigal, ornithologist Jorge Schondube, ecologists Susan Galatowitsch, Consuelo Bonfil, Daniela FernÁndez y FernÁndez and Mario GonzÁlez-Espinos, and writer/architect Robert B. Riley. Each offers a different perspective on this multifaceted project.
