Originally published in 1984, The Roots of Modern Environmentalism
provides a historical, philosophical and ideological background to
environmentalism. Topics covered include, the roots of
technological environmentalism, the medieval cosmology and Bacon's
philosophy, the non-scientific roots of ecological
environmentalism, such as Romanticism and its scientific roots in
the theories of Malthus and Darwin. The Marxist perspective on
Nature is also discussed. The concluding chapter is a criticism of
education which challenges its usefulness as an agent of
socio-economic change. This book will be of interest to academics
and students of environmentalism and geography.
