Reviews

'Excellent.. a model of clarity and fairmindedness; it is exceptionally well-informed; it is wide ranging, covering nearly all the main topics in the aesthetics of nature, and others besides; and it is ambitious, offering answers to all the problems it considers. It is a book that anyone seriously concerned with the aesthetics of the environment must come to terms with,' - Mind; 'Philosophical aesthetics at its best.' - Canadian Aesthetics Journal; 'Fascinating... this is an important body of work in contemporary aesthetics.' - British Journal of Aesthetics; 'An excellent overview of analytical environmental aesthetics.' - Environmental Politics; 'Ambitious and challenging... this book will certainly stimulate many aestheticians, and others as well.' - Philosophical Quarterly; 'A richly textured, provocative set of texts that will undoubtedly be of great value to students.' - Philosophy in Review; 'I found much stimulating discussion in these pages. [Carlson] is a worthy opponent for those wedded to a more Kantian or historicist approach to natural beauty.' - British Journal of Aesthetics
