Wizard Study Guide In Country

by Janique Lambert

In Inventing Nature, based on his study of diverse restoration efforts in North America, Matthias Gross argues that a profound change in social analysis must accompany the proper understanding of ecological restoration.

Inventing Nature offers a way past the social constructivist versus realist debate in the environmental social sciences.
