Praise for the First Edition: This is an introduction to environmental ethics that only Holmes Rolston could write - at once gut-wrenchingly direct and poetically-inspired, it will attract new generations to the field that he did so much to create. Dale Jamieson, New York University A succinct overview of the field from its most important thinker, this book is the indispensable introduction to environmental ethics. Willis Jenkins, Yale University Highly recommended. Choice
