Description
Roderick Nash’s classic study of The united states’s changing attitudes toward wilderness has received wide acclaim since its initial publication in 1967. The Los Angeles Times has listed it a number of the one hundred most influential books published within the last quarter century, Out of doors Magazine has included it in a survey of “books that modified our world,” and it has been known as the “Book of Genesis for environmentalists.” Now a fourth edition of this very popular work is to be had, with a new preface and epilogue by which Nash explores the way forward for wilderness and reflects on its ethical and biocentric relevance.
