Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Nature for Its Own Sake: First Studies in Natural Appearances So far as application or illustration is con cerned, my argument has no direct bearing upon any branch of science, literature, or art. I have used scientific facts occasionally to point a meaning without designing a scientific book I have in places spoken of literature, but the book is not an appeal to nature from those who have written about it; and as for art, the word does not appear after this preface. Painters or writ ers, with their truth or falsity of statement, are not my present concern. What, then, is the object of the book Simply to call attention to that nature around us which oa too many peo ple look at every day and yet never see, to show that light, form, and color are beautiful regard less of human meaning or use, to suggest what pleasure and profit may be derived from the study of that natural beauty which is everyone's untaxed heritage, and which may be had for the lifting of one's eves.

The Intrinsic Value Of Nature written by Leena Vilkka and has been published by Rodopi this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Philosophy categories.
What is intrinsic value? What is the origin of value? Are people always superior to nature? This book is a philosophical analysis of the human relationship to the non-human world. It is a pioneering study of the philosophy of nature-conservation in relation to the discussion of intrinsic value. Vilkka develops a naturalistic or naturocentric theory of value that is based on ethical extensionism and pluralism. Vilkka analyzes natural values and environmental attitudes: zoocentrism, biocentrism, and ecocentrism. This book forms a taxonomy for nature having intrinsic value. The theory of intrinsic value is based on naturocentric and naturogenic values. The book questions the thesis of weak anthropocentrism that denies the existence of naturogenic values. In Vilkka's theory, animals and nature are the origin of value. She defends the existence of zoogenic and biogenic values in the non-human world and discusses the possibility of ecogenic value, nature as a whole having value independent of human or animal minds. Vilkka analyzes the goodness and rights of nature, the problem of priorities, and ecological humanism. A naturocentric recommendation is that the well-being of animals and nature should have priority over human values at least in some real decision contexts. Ecological humanism recommends an attitude of respect for people, animals, and nature. The book includes an extensive glossary, index, and bibliography.
