This book brings together over thirty of the foremost contributions
to environmental ethics, from pioneering papers to recent work at
the cutting edge of thought in this field. It also unites them
through an innovative introductory essay which appraises both
strengths and weaknesses and presents a distinctive view of the
subject. Areas covered include the land ethic, Deep Ecology,
biocentric approaches, environmental virtue ethics, feminist
contributions, debates on equity and on the interests and
representation of future generations, preservation, sustainability
and sustainable development. The importance of attempts to discover
a comprehensive ethic relevant both to the environment and other
key areas of ethical debate is highlighted. Robin Attfield has been
working in this field for thirty years, and has published several
related collections and monographs, of which the latest is
Environmental Ethics: An Overview for the Twenty-First Century,
published by Polity in 2003. The Ethics of The Environment
complements that work, from which it incorporates a significant
extract about the considerable practical difference that
environmental ethics is capable of making.
