Editorial Review Product Description The world has changed in the seventeen years since the controversial initial publication of Paul Hawken's Ecology of Commerce, a stirring treatise about the perceived antagonism between ecology and business. Yet Hawken's impassioned argument—that business both causes the most egregious abuses of the environment and, crucially, holds the most potential for solving our sustainability problems—is more relevant and resonant than ever. Containing updated and revised material for a new audience, The Ecology of Commerce presents a compelling vision of the restorative (rather than destructive) economy we must create, centered on eight imperatives: Customer Reviews (42)

Editorial Review Product Description "This collection amounts to a retrospective exhibition of a working life. . . . Bateson has come to this position during a career that carried him not only into anthropology, for which he was first trained, but into psychiatry, genetics, and communication theory. . . . He . . . examines the nature of the mind, seeing it not as a nebulous something, somehow lodged somewhere in the body of each man, but as a network of interactions relating the individual with his society and his species and with the universe at large."--D. W. Harding, New York Review of Books "[Bateson's] view of the world, of science, of culture, and of man is vast and challenging. His efforts at synthesis are tantalizingly and cryptically suggestive. . . .This is a book we should all read and ponder."--Roger Keesing, American Anthropologist Gregory Bateson (1904-1980) was the author of Naven and Mind and Nature.

What is the difference between a nip and a bite?
A true masterpiece! This is the type of book (among few) that can be read over and over again while discovering new facets of understanding every time. I highly recommend the metalogues.
Buzzwords mixed toghether in a pile of dross If you have to read this for an assignment, you'd better change major and give it to your worst enemy for toilet paper. That's how low I think of this. And to think that a tree was felled for this. Ha !
This book is an old friend. Not only did Bateson do a bang-up job of getting me to think in interesting or useful or maybe somewhat cleaner ways, he's actually pretty good at writing..... ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Ray grew up in a junkyard outside what had been longleafpine forest, an ecosystem that has nearly disappeared in the AmericanSouth through excessive logging. Her family had little money, but thatwas not important; they more than made up for material want throughunabashed love and a passion for learning, values that underlie everyturn of Ray's narrative.She finds beauty in weeds and puddles,celebrates the ways of tortoises and woodpeckers, and arguespowerfully for the virtues of establishing a connection with one'snative ground. "I carry the landscape inside like an ache," Raywrites. Her evocations of fog-enshrouded woods and old ways of livingare not without pain for all that has been lost--but full of hope aswell for what can be saved. --Gregory McNamee Customer Reviews (45)

Editorial Review Product Description As in City of Quartz,his earlier book about Los Angeles, Davis reveals the deeperideological narratives behind historical events. Whether he'sexplaining the motivations behind the persistent refusal of civicleaders to admit that a tornado alley runs down the middle of theregion, from Long Beach to Pasadena, or discussing, as one chapterrefers to it, "the case for letting Malibu burn," heoutlines his arguments with a fascinating amount of detail and asubtle sense of irony. There are wonderful chapters here, such as"Maneaters of the Sierra Madre," a zoology of the wildbeasts Angelenos fear, including mountain lions that descend from thehills to eat joggers and small children, swarms of Africanized killerbees making their way across the deserts, and El Chupacabra, the"goat-sucking vampire" that joined L.A.'s roster of faddishicons in 1996. Although this book is specifically about LosAngeles, its lessons about the relationship between urban developmentsand natural ecosystems and about the dangerous influence of classpolitics on environmental safety policy are applicable to anycity. Anyone with a serious interest in natural history or urbanpolicy should make a point of reading this book. --Ron Hogan Customer Reviews (50)
