Summary
Provides a controversial analysis of the psychological roots of human attempts to destroy the environment, focusing on the desire to subjugate rather than harmonize with natural processes that has led to continual conflict with nature
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Through much of history our relationship with the earth has been plagued by ambivalenceâwe not only enjoy and appreciate the forces and manifestations of nature, we seek to plunder, alter, and control them. Here Paul Shepard uncovers the cultural roots of our ecological crisis and proposes ways to repair broken bonds with the earth, our past, and nature. Ultimately encouraging, he notes, "There is a secret person undamaged in every individual. We have not lost, and cannot lose, the genuine impulse."
