and Change Discordant Harmonies: A New Ecology for the Twenty-First Century by Daniel B Botkin; Oxford University Press, New York,
MAYANK KUMAR The book is a beautiful attempt to make us aware of the present mental conditioning of humanity vis-a-vis the environment. It basically questions our notions and methods to understand nature and its functioning. It is must reading for any professional working on anything even remotely related to environment and should be made mandatory reading for our undergraduates. The book is as much a reading in the scientific understanding of the functioning of environment as it is a treatise on the history of the human perception of environment since the distant past.
