Stan Godlovitch

Building an Environmental Philosophy

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this work, Godlovitch explores aspects of the value of nature other than as a resource to satisfy our material interests. He argues that we are encouraged, if not compelled, toward a conception of value in its own right whether we try to forge either a natural aesthetic or an environmental ethic.
