'The book adopts a highly interdisciplinary approach to deciphering how our societies are operating. The goal here is to propose alternatives that could help us achieve truly sustainable development pathways. Dr Espino's proposal is actionable. It provides a bit of fresh air amidst the many crises of our time.' Catherine Potvin, FRSC, Canada Research Chair (Tier 1) on Climate Change Mitigation and Tropical Forests, and Professor, Department of Biology, McGill University 'Conversations with the Turtles is the best of anthropology, and all the better because the author forges graceful lines of flight that extend beyond the portals of disciplinary ivory towers to the busy avenues and gritty streets of life as we live it. The author's lamplights will shine on you and leave you more awake than you might care to be. The brilliance is harsh; it is inescapable.' James D. Faubion, Radoslav Tsanoff Chair and Professor of Anthropology Emeritus, Rice University '… an intellectual feast.… Essential.' D. Stoesz, CHOICE
