Visit publisher's website The decline of nature; environmental history and the Western worldview.LaFreniere, Gilbert F.Academica Press, LLC, ?2007 457 p. $74.95 GF75978-1-933146-40-9This book is a historical review of changing Western worldviews towards humanity's relationship with the environment, which is to a significant extent, in the eyes of the author, determined by worldviews on the nature of history itself. Both the views arising out of Christian providential views of history and those based on the idea of endless progress in technological innovation and economic growth are argued to be incapable of confronting today's massive environmental problems. The author calls for resurrecting and extensively modifying a version of the cyclical view of history described by Oswald Spengler in The Decline of the West. (Annotation ?2008 Book News Inc.

The Natural West offers essays reflecting the natural history of the American West as written by one of its most respected environmental historians. Developing a provocative theme, Dan Flores asserts that Western environmental history cannot be explained by examining place, culture, or policy alone, but should be understood within the context of a universal human nature. The Natural West entertains the notion that we all have a biological nature that helps explain some of our attitudes towards the environment. FLores also explains the ways in which various cultures-including the Comanches, New Mexico Hispanos, Mormons, Texans, and Montanans-interact with the environment of the West. Gracefully moving between the personal and the objective, Flores intersperses his writings with literature, scientific theory, and personal reflection. The topics cover a wide range-from historical human nature regarding animals and exploration, to the environmental histories of particular Western bioregions, and finally, to Western restoration as the great environmental theme of the twenty-first century.

An examination of how Western visions of endless future growth have contributed to the global environmental crisis For centuries, the West has produced stories about the future in which humans use advanced science and technology to transform the earth. Michael Rawson uses a wide range of works that include Francis Bacon’s New Atlantis, the science fiction novels of Jules Verne, and even the speculations of think tanks like the RAND Corporation to reveal the environmental paradox at the heart of these narratives: the single-minded expectation of unlimited growth on a finite planet. Rawson shows how these stories, which have long pervaded Western dreams about the future, have helped to enable an unprecedentedly abundant and technology-driven lifestyle for some while bringing the threat of environmental disaster to all. Adapting to ecological realities, he argues, hinges on the ability to create new visions of tomorrow that decouple growth from the idea of progress.
