Thinking Like a Watershed points our understanding of our
relationship to the land in new directions. It is shaped by the
bioregional visions of the great explorer John Wesley Powell, who
articulated the notion that the arid American West should be seen
as a mosaic of watersheds, and the pioneering ecologist Aldo
Leopold, who put forward the concept of bringing conscience to bear
within the realm of "the land ethic."
Produced in conjunction with the documentary radio series
entitled Watersheds as Commons, this book comprises essays and
interviews from a diverse group of southwesterners including
members of Tewa, Tohono O'odham, Hopi, Navajo, Hispano, and Anglo
cultures. Their varied cultural perspectives are shaped by
consciousness and resilience through having successfully endured
the aridity and harshness of southwestern environments over
time.
