Reviews

These philosophical essays . . . should intrigue those who enjoy exploring unexpected connections and fresh insights. --Library Journal Puts Zencey in the high company of pro-nature intellectuals like Wendell Berry and Wes Jackson. --Advocate Offers many erudite and reflective lessons on nature and our place in it. --Publishers Weekly Infinitely wise and unflinching. --Bill McKibben In a time of rising ecological concern and interest Virgin Forest is a useful book to readers who are interested in the philosophical side of ecology, culture and history, and who want to understand the deeper forces behind moral ecology, before they study the more practical application of environmental history. --Environment and History If you were to pick one person who sees deepest into environmentalism, I think that person might be Eric Zencey.
