This book is a rigorous assessment of the ways in which the natural and cultural environments we inhabit are valued, offering a distinctive perspective on environmental ethics and policy making that is sensitive to real life conflicts and dilemmas.
"Environmental Values is an excellent book, easy to read, and relatively short." -- Richard Haynes,Ecological Restoration, Vol. 26, No. 1
Environmental Values covers an extraordinary amount of ground with clarity and precision. It distils key ideas from leading thinkers in environmental philosophy into one tightly argued volume. It offers both careful, accurate summaries of existing positions and an original, stuimulating position of its own. I highly recommend it. Clare Palmer, Geographical Journal
