A comprehensive look at how John Dewey's ethics can inform
environmental issues. Hugh P. McDonald's John Dewey and
Environmental Philosophy breaks new ground by applying Dewey's
insights to a new approach to philosophy of the environment; the
concern for the rights of animals; the preservation of rare
species, habitats, and landscapes; and the health of the whole
ecology. The book summarizes much of the current literature on
environmental ethics, concentrating on the writings of major
figures in the movement: Tom Regan, J. Baird Callicott, Holmes
Rolston, and Bryan Norton. The heart of the book consists of a
detailed analysis of Dewey's ethics, his theory of intrinsic value,
and his holistic approach to moral justification. Arguing against
the idea that Dewey's philosophy is anthropocentric, McDonald makes
a strong case that using Dewey's philosophy will result in a
superior framework for environmental ethics.
