Description and Table of Contents
Description
Grounded in practical environmental issues and concerns, this book introduces students to a range of ethical and philosophical issues that stem from the interaction of human beings and their natural environment. With a balance of theoretical and empirical concerns, the author discusses the development of the field of environmental ethics, including the evolution of environmental theory and practice. Following an introductory survey of a variety of environmental and philosophical issues, it provides accounts of current debates in the field (involving such topics as pollution, energy, and animal rights), revealing how philosophical analysis can clarify the issues and provide guidance for action.
