About This Item
University of Minnesota Press, 1994. Trade paperback. Very Good. 96x12x144. Some pencil underlining. Addressing current ecological issues, from the philosophical to the practical, Frederick Turner and William R. Jordan III here offer a new paradigm for understanding the relationship between the humans and nature. Challenging the idea that preserving nature is the only solution to environmental problems, they advocate going beyond preservation to restoration and actual construction of our landscape. Fifteen respondents reflect on the implications and consequences of Turner's and Jordan's bold proposals. "Ecological restoration is the most helpful and provocative contribution to our thinking about nature to come along in many years, and Beyond Preservation is without a doubt the best book on the subject to date".
