"It is hard to put this profound book into a category. Despite the
author's criticisms of Thoreau, it is more like Walden than any
other book I have read. . . . The book makes great strides toward
bringing the best insights from medieval philosophy and from
contemporary environmental ethics together. Anyone interested in
both of these areas must read this book."-Daniel A. Dombrowski, The
Thomist "Those who share Kohák's concern to understand nature as
other than a mere resource or matter in motion will find his
temporally oriented interpretation of nature instructive. It is
here in particular that Kohák turns moments of experience to
account philosophically, turning what we habitually overlook or
avoid into an opportunity and basis for self-knowledge. This is an
impassioned attempt to see the vital order of nature and the moral
order of our humanity as one."-Ethics
