"This is an introduction to environmental ethics that only Holmes Rolston could write- at once gut-wrenchingly direct and poetically-inspired, it will attract new generations to the field that he did so much to create." –Dale Jamieson, New York University"Holmes Rolston's A New Environmental Ethics is new in the best sense: an honest, fresh appraisal of where we are and where we are heading. It likewise is old in the best sense. There comes a time to reflect on where we have been and why, what we have accomplished, and what we stand for. This is Rolston's time, and his is a voice that will be heard across generations." –David Schmidtz, University of Arizona"A succinct overview of the field from its most important thinker, this book is the indispensable introduction to environmental ethics." –Willis Jenkins, Yale University"With characteristic rigor, Rolston proves once again to be a moral explorer par excellence. His new book not only surveys the existing terrain of environmental ethics literature, but it persuasively argues for following a greener, more life-respecting morality; it is an exemplary read for an environmental ethics course." –Ben Dixon, Stephen F. Austin State University"Ultimately this text does a superior job of provoking the reader to think, provides a broad range of complexities and examples, and will serve as an approachable and useful text for environmental ethics. Because it is a defense of the very existence of the entire field, and a positioning of environmental ethics as a necessary part of our historical narrative; this book may appeal to a somewhat broader audience than classroom students. In addition to being a text, then, it may be suitable for a casual reader who is interested in the topic, or as a refresher to anyone who has once taken an interest. It is a welcome addition to the field." –Environmental Ethics
