Selected and introduced by Barry Lopez, this collection of 31 essays explores the barriers that divide humanity from the natural world and reveals the damning results of that division. It looks through our pervasive ecological crises to the root causes in human culture and offers a path beyond. From local economies to our genetic heritage, and from environmental refugees to the nature of education, this book is both a compendium of the finest writing in Orion and a crucial guidebook for the twenty-first century activist.
