"Intriguing." --Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and
Environment "Ray challenges assumptions in the field of
environmentalism in general and in environment and literature in
particular. She raises crucial questions about the way that
environmentalism excludes certain groups that environmentalists and
environmental studies programs should seriously consider." --Rachel
Stein, author of New Perspectives on Environmental Justice: Gender,
Sexuality, and Activism
"In its critical examination of the disabled body as an 'ecological
other' that is also raced and gendered, this book adds a very
important and innovative perspective to our understanding of
constructions of environmentalism and nationalism in the United
States." --Noël Sturgeon, author of Environmentalism in Popular
Culture: Gender, Race, Sexuality, and the Politics of the
Natural
"Sure to become a seminal work in environmental justice." --The
Chronicles of Oklahoma
