Ecological Ethics is the best practical introduction to the role of philosophy in understanding the greatest environmental challenges of our time. Everyone who wants to make a difference should read it. David Rothenberg, New Jersey Institute of Technology and author of Survival of the Beautiful and Why Birds Sing An excellent introduction to the different schools of ecological ethics, and as importantly, a strong defense of why a deep-green (or ecocentric) ethics represents the future of ethics if we humans wish to sustain a viable civilization on planet Earth. Erik Assadourian, Senior Fellow and Director of the Transforming Cultures Project, Worldwatch Institute The environmental crisis has many facets - technological, political, economic. But there are deep ethical questions that undergird them all, and Patrick Curry elucidates a number of them. You needn't agree with all his answers to make use of this volume; use it as a guide to asking your own questions. Bill McKibben, author of Earth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet Curry is one of the most creative and important new voices in post-secular, or animistic, environmental ethics. David Keller, Utah Valley University
