A Good That Transcends: How Us Culture Undermines Environmental Reform
ISBN: 9780226326115 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the birth of the modern environmental movement in the 1970s, the United States has witnessed dramatic shifts in social equality, ecological viewpoints, and environmental policy. With these changes has also come an increased popular resistance to environmental reform, but, as Eric T. Freyfogle reveals in this book, that resistance has far deeper roots. Calling upon key environmental voices from the past and present--including Aldo Leopold, Wendell Berry, David Orr, and even Pope Francis in his Encyclical--and exploring core concepts like wilderness and the tragedy of the commons, A...

ISBN: 9781559639217 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Our Oldest Task: Making Sense of Our Place in Nature
ISBN: 9780226326399 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "This is a book about nature and culture," Eric T. Freyfogle writes, "about our place and plight on earth, and the nagging challenges we face in living on it in ways that might endure." Challenges, he says, we are clearly failing to meet. Harking back to a key phrase from the essays of eminent American conservationist Aldo Leopold, Our Oldest Task spins together lessons from history and philosophy, the life sciences and politics, economics and cultural studies in a personal, erudite quest to understand how we might live on--and in accord with--the land. Passionate and pragmatic,...

Why Conservation Is Failing and How It Can Regain Ground
ISBN: 9780300110401 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Critics of environmental laws complain that such rules often burden people unequally, restrict individual liberty, and undercut private property rights. In formulating responses to these criticisms, the conservation effort has stumbled badly, says Eric T. Freyfogle in this thought-provoking book. Conservationists and environmentalists haven't done their intellectual homework, he contends, and they have failed to offer an understandable, compelling vision of healthy lands and healthy human communities.
