For the Wild explores the ways in which the commitments of radical
environmental and animal-rights activists develop through powerful
experiences with the more-than-human world during childhood and
young adulthood. The book addresses the question of how and why
activists come to value nonhuman animals and the natural world as
worthy of protection. Emotions and memories of wonder, love,
compassion, anger, and grief shape activists' protest practices and
help us understand their deep-rooted commitments to the planet and
its creatures. Drawing on analyses of activist art, music, and
writings, as well as interviews and participant-observation in
activist communities, Sarah M. Pike delves into the sacred duties
of these often misunderstood and marginalized groups with openness
and sensitivity.
