"Environmental history offers a provocative new paradigm and perspective on the human past. This collection of essays, selected from the major journals in the field, demonstrate the intellectual vigor and geographical scope of that new approach. Read them, and your understanding of history will change dramatically." - Donald Worster,University of Kansas, USA, "Environmental history offers a provocative new paradigm and perspective on the human past. This collection of essays, selected from the major journals in the field, demonstrate the intellectual vigor and geographical scope of that new approach. Read them, and your understanding of history will change dramatically." - Donald Worster, University of Kansas, USA "In Global Environmental History , John McNeill and Alan Roe have put together a stimulating 'canon' of great readings. Together they explore many of the key themes in the emerging interdisciplinary field of environmental history, which explores past relations between people and environments historically, geographically, ecologically and through following many other disciplinary paths as well. The 'global synthesis' will ultimately need the understandings of many scales - global, regional and local - and the readings are organised in a way that considers the insights from each. There will, we hope be more such anthologies to follow. This one is a pioneering collection for an exciting intellectual endeavour." - Libby Robin, Australian National University, Australia, "Environmental history offers a provocative new paradigm and perspective on the human past.

Synopsis
Global Environmental History introduces this rapidly developing field through a broad and thought-provoking range of expert contributions. Environmental history is a subject especially suited to global and transnational approaches and, over the course of the present generation, an increasing number of scholars have taken up the challenge that it presents. The collection begins with a series of chapters offering truly global visions; they range from reflections on the role of animals in environmental history to an overview of environmental change over the past ten millennia. Part Two switches to a sharper focus, featuring essays that characterize the distinctiveness of certain key regions such as China, Russia, West Africa, South Asia, Europe, and Latin America. The final part of the book examines different forms of modern environmentalism, ranging from the U.S. and its fascination with wilderness, to Japanese concern with human health, and on to Peru and India, where the environmental debate centres on access to resources. Global Environmental History will be an essential resource for students of Environmental History and Global History., Global Environmental History introduces this rapidly developing field through a broad and thought-provoking range of expert contributions, it will be an essential resource for students of Environmental History and Global History.

- e***n (390)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
