Jeremy L. Caradonna is Associate Professor of History at the University of Alberta. He is the author of The Enlightenment in Practice.
"A superb survey of the most important concept of the 21st century.
Thoughtful, cogent, and essential reading." --David W. Orr, Oberlin
College, author of Down to the Wire
"Caradonna rapidly traces a thread through centuries of thinkers
and political movements. Along the way he ably documents the fact
that interest in environmental quality has grown over the last
three centuries and that government has as often been used to
undermine environmental quality as to support it." --EH.Net
