Recenzii
"[Man and Nature was] the rudest kick in the face that American initiative, optimism, and carelessness had yet received.--Wallace Stegner"It is no exaggeration to say that Man and Nature launched the modern conservation movement. It helped Americans in the second half of the nineteenth century recognize the damage they were doing to the natural environment, and challenged them to behave in more responsible ways toward the earth and its natural systems. . . . Man and Nature stands right next to Silent Spring and A Sand County Almanac by any measure of historic significance.--from the Foreword by William Cronon
Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
First published in 1864, Marsh's ominous warnings inspired environmental conservation and reform. By linking culture with nature, science with history, "Man and Nature" was the most influential text of its time next to Darwin's "On the Origin of Species."
