'It will ... stand as a key, thoughtful work on the ecological crisis ... an excellent choice for a graduate seminar on environmental thought ... rich and provocative.' - Environmental Politics
'This text is an important development of Plumwood's earlier works underlining the dualistic separation of humanity from nature as a key factor in our collective lack of enviromental ethics ... a nuanced and convincing analysis.'
