Among those included are:
philosophers such as Rousseau, Kant, Spinoza and Heidegger
activists such as Chico Mendes and Wangari Maathai
literary giants such as Virgil, Goethe and Wordsworth
major religious and spiritual figures such as Buddha and St Francis of Assissi
eminent scientists such as Darwin, Lovelock and E.O. Wilson.
Lucid, scholarly and informative, the essays contained within this volume offer a fascinating overview of humankind’s view and understanding of the natural world.
