This book is a wake-up call for environmentalists who need to
consider how current educational ideals and practices undermine
efforts to create a more sustainable future. It is also a wake-up
call for educators who continue to base their reform efforts on the
primacy of the individual, while ignoring the fact that the
individual is nested in culture, and culture is nested in (and thus
dependent upon) natural ecosystems. Bowers argues that the modern
way of understanding moral education, creativity, intelligence, and
the role of direct experience in the learning process cannot be
supported by evidence from such fields as anthropology, cultural
linguistics, and the sociology of knowledge.
