| Description: |
Advances questions from which the author formulates a principle which proposes that all our moral doctrines should be preceded by a premise aimed at preserving a philosophical analysis and defence of environmental integrity. She also explores some practical implications of such an ethic. |
| Synopsis: |
'This original discussion breaks new ground by thoroughly analyzing ethical and aesthetic values, centering on the concept of ecological integrity, that apply intrinsically to nature and that govern our rightful use of the environment. Those who have been waiting for an exciting account of the inherent structure and worth of ecological systems in relation to environmental policy will find it in this book.'-Mark Sagoff, Director of the Institute for Philosophy and Public Policy, University of Maryland at College Park |
