How can cultural forms motivate people to care about their
environment? While important scientific data about ecosystems is
mushrooming, E. N. Anderson argues in this powerful new book that
putting effective conservation into practice depends primarily on
social solidarity and emotional factors. Marshaling decades of
research on cultures across several continents, he shows how
societies have been more or less successful in sustainably managing
their environments based on collective engagements such as
religion, art, song, myth, and story. This provocative and deeply
felt book by a leading writer and scholar in human ecology and
anthropology will be read and debated widely for years to come.
