This book attempts to answer two important
questions. These include; "What does it mean to have
an ecological identity?" and "What implications does
this have for those working in the helping
professions?" This exploration uses a hermeneutic
stance that pays special attention to the way we use
language to interpret the human-nature relationship
and leads to a unique understanding of what it means
to help others. This work will be of interest to
educators and helping professionals who want to
develop a more ecologically congruent form of
practice.
