Encyclopedia of Environmental Ethics and Philosophy: 2 Volume Set
ISBN: 9780028661377 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 1127 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The field of environmental ethics is a new but now well-established sub-discipline of philosophy. Emerging in the mid-1970s, the field coalesced with the inaugural volume of the journal Environmental Ethics in 1979 and developed rapidly. By the turn of the century, most colleges and universities offered courses, if not major programs of study, in this important discipline. The Encyclopedia of Environmental Ethics and Philosophy addresses the needs of upper high school students, undergraduate researchers, teachers and professors, as well as general readers by examining the philosophical and...

Thinking Like a Planet: The Land Ethic and the Earth Ethic
ISBN: 9780199324897 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Bringing together ecology, evolutionary moral psychology, and environmental ethics, J. Baird Callicott counters the narrative of blame and despair that prevails in contemporary discussions of climate ethics and offers a fresh, more optimistic approach. Whereas other environmental ethicists limit themselves to what Callicott calls Rational Individualism in discussing the problem of climate change only to conclude that, essentially, there is little hope that anything will be done in the face of its "perfect moral storm" (in Stephen Gardiner's words), Callicott refuses to accept this view....

In Defense of the Land Ethic
ISBN: 9780887069000 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Defense of the Land Ethic: Essays in Environmental Philosophy brings into a single volume J. Baird Callicott's decade-long effort to articulate, defend, and extend the seminal environmental philosophy of Aldo Leopold. A leading voice in this new field, Callicott sounds the depths of the proverbial iceberg, the tip of which is "The Land Ethic." "The Land Ethic," Callicott argues, is traceable to the moral psychology of David Hume and Charles Darwin's classical account of the origin and evolution of Hume's moral sentiments. Leopold adds an ecological vision of organic nature to these...
