Description

First published in 1994, this is an examination of the ways in which different conceptions of nature shape our responses to specific environmental issues. In this revised edition, Jan E. Dizard adds a new chapter, updating the controversy over the state-managed deer hunt at the Quabbin Reservoir in Massachusetts, and placing it in a broader national context.
