"The book is a comprehensive selection of chapters and a joy to read for anyone who is interested in social anthropology’s approaches to nature. In general, it is a thought-provoking work that offers inspiring examples on the different ways that anthropologists approach nature today. The book is also a must-read for other social scientists and especially scholars engaged in the natural sciences. It will also give policy makers in the environmental field valuable insights into their work."— Maija Lassila, Journal of the Finnish Anthropological Society
