Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In 'Ecology Without Nature', Timothy Morton argues that the chief stumbling block to environmental thinking is the image of nature that most writers on the topic promote: they propose a new worldview, but their very zeal to preserve the natural world leads them away from the 'nature' they revere.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [207]-237) and index.
