Review # 1 was written on 2007-09-25 00:00:00 Roy Morgan I really appreciated the idea that Forbes espouses regarding finding a moral compass to guide conservation but I worry about imposing human value judments on natural systems and proceses. He is trying to encourage and empower people to make conscientious choices about how they interact with the land they live on--treating it as any other emotional relationship and for this I find the book engaging and insightful. This book was making the rounds of some of my Parkie friends and I have had it for years without reading it. Figured it was about time. |
Review # 2 was written on 2008-12-21 00:00:00 Alex Mundy This 88-page book is a short yet inspiring read. Going beyond just conservation-science, Peter Forbes focuses on conserving landscapes through conserving relationships between people and the land. I've been trying to find this book for 5 years as no library systems anywhere I've lived ever had it. I finally found a copy in a thrift store, and it was so refreshing in the midst of reading scientific journal articles about carbon isotope discrimination. It is also available at the TPL's website, |
