Description
Research from a uniquely humanist perspective has much to offer in interrogating the social and cultural ramifications of invasion ecologies. This book addresses the ongoing community concerns about invasive species and the ecological changes that we will together face in a climate changing world. It demonstrates beautifully how the environmental humanities can meaningfully impact discourse on environmental degradation. It allows us to rethink what has been a longstanding problem in global environmental history: the impact on national, regional or local ecologies of the deliberate or accidental introduction of foreign species, plant and animal. The book reveals how the nonhuman world must be examined in conjunction with cultural and historical processes. Particularly important is how it examines the prejudice toward nativism in much supposedly neutral environmental and ecological writing.
