The World and the Wild

Rating:
Summary: Recommended
Review: (Planeta.com Journal) - This anthology is one of this year's must-reads. Contributions from all over the globe show the importance of wilderness. The editors have succeeded in their mission "to reinvigorate the effort to understand, reveal and save wilderness beyond the usual futile polarities." Thumb through the chapter "The Park of Ten Thousand Waterfalls" to find out how one entreprenuer has created one of the largest parks on the globe -- Chile's Parque Pumalin. Other chapters take on taboo topics, such as "Why conservation in the tropics is failing" or eco legends, such as "Recycled Rain Forest Myths." Highly recommended.
