"An exemplary introduction to cutting edge work on the geographies
of nature. Intellectually demanding, clearly written and
empirically rich, this is a book that deserves a wide readership
within and beyond the geographical discipline." - Sarah J.
Whatmore, Oxford University Centre for the Environment Geographies
of Nature introduces readers to conventional understandings of
nature - realist, environmental, constructivist - while examining
alternative accounts from different disciplines where nature
resists easy classification. Accessibly written, it demonstrates
how recent thinking has urgent relevance and impact on the ways in
which we approach environmental problems. The text: Makes concepts
like 'environment', 'conservation', and 'sustainability' accessible
and applicable with the extensive use of case studies. Uses text
boxes to introduce readers to debates and ideas. Grounds the reader
and proceeds to the explanation of more complex arguments
progressively. Geographies of Nature presents a new kind of
environmental analysis, one that refuses to view nature as wholly
separate to the human and nonhuman practices through which it is
constantly made and remade.
