reviewed Democratizing Nature: Politics, Conservation, and Development in India on February 14, 2008 Democratizing Nature
I saw this book mentioned in a Brooklyn Rail article on "Green Hermeticism" and decided to pick it up. Highly enjoyable writing that sheds actual historical light on a topic that is mired in new-age dreck. Yates traces the influence of Renaissance Hermetic-Cabalistic/Dee-influenced thought through the early 1600's and documents it's impact on the scientific revolution in Newton, Kepler and the Royal Society. I very much enjoyed this book and I look forward to reading Yates' other books on Renaissance thought and ideas.
