Cultural History of Animals in the Age of Empire
Four Murray Bookchin essays compiled together provide a decent introduction to his philosophy of 'social ecology.' Basically, the idea that human society and non-human ecology are not a dualism but rather complementary parts of a living whole, and that in order to make positive social change we must "place humanity within a natural context" in Bookchin's words. Made me want to re-read The Ecology of Freedom. This guy was smart.
