Reviews
"""There are numerous books that discuss Snyder's ecological view and, to a lesser extent, his relation to Dogen. There are also many books on Buddhism and ecology. But this book is unique in its focus and format and its authorial voice. It's a distinctive, ambitious, and timely work."" - David Landis Barnhill, translator of Basho's Journey: The Literary Prose of Matsuo Basho ""This is a very interesting book on, arguably, the most crucial topic that we are facing today. It makes us realize how deep we are in the ecological crisis, and that this crisis is not merely a crisis outside of us, but lies first and foremost deeply in ourselves. An incredibly timely and important book-I could not stop reading it and thinking about it."" - Gerard Kuperus, author of Ecopolitical Homelessness: Defining Place in an Unsettled World"
