“The particular strength of this book is its inclusion of many writings from significant or ‘classic’ sources and its strong effort to span the disciplines.”—Deborah Dalton, University of Oklahoma
“This book should alleviate a lot of stress and hassle for Environmental Studies teachers. It’s a streamlined volume of the must-reads throughout the history of this important subject.”—Margaret Lowman, author of Life in the Treetops and co-author of It’s a Jungle Up There: More Tales from the Treetops
“This superb collection contains a comprehensive yet highly selective set of environmental writings. The book contains many classics as well as more recent pieces that are destined to become classics. Environment crosses over among environmental literature, science, technology and policy . . . often in the same section and sometimes within individual articles. Highly recommended for any student or scholar of environmental studies.”—Professor Andrew Friedland, Dartmouth Environmental Studies Program
"This comprehensive anthology is a goldmine for writing teachers whose courses are environmentally themed. It provides students with ample material to make connections between environmental issues in different disciplines, from history to biology to law. Selections were clearly chosen to model key elements of academic inquiry and argument, making the collection indispensable for student writers hoping to enhance their own powers of persuasion."—Kerry Walk, Director of the Princeton Writing Program
