This series of essays examines the underlying historical, cultural, and philosophical issues that undermine the sustainability of natural resources and proposes alternative approaches to conservation. These approaches emphasize the relations among populations rather than among individuals; the integrity of the whole ecosystems across longer time frames; the importance of qualitative as well as quantitative indicators of human welfare and sustainability; and the unpredictable and interdependent interaction among "natural," scientific, and regulatory processes.
