The price is almost worth it...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I used this book for years in teaching environmental ethics. I believe it is the single-best text out there for such a class. However, that price is astounding, and for the first time in a decade, I have switched textbooks. The contents are almost worth it, though, and richly interdisciplinary, collecting together economic, biological, religious and philosophical perspectives. I highly recommend this for those who want to know what a nearly perfect environmental ethics textbook would look like, and who want the best regardless of the price. I lament the necessity of not inflicting such a cost on my students.
It's not just "environmental" ethics...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book provides an extraordinary place for any individual looking to understand and hone their ethics and values, it just happens to use environmental issues as its context. The editorial comments are concise and probing, and the illustrative articles and essays are classic and thought provoking. Although the reading is generally a bit dense for page turning on one's way to bed, that's even viable for individuals looking for a bit of intensity prior to sleep. An excellent, well rounded, exploration into earth's environment and human roles and perceptions regarding it.
