Philosophy of Ecology
An Introduction
Ecology and Its Importance
Ecology is indispensable to understanding the biological world and addressing the environmental problems humanity faces. Its philosophy has never been more important.
Introduction to Philosophical Issues
In this book, James Justus introduces readers to the philosophically rich issues ecology poses.
Ecology's Role in Addressing Environmental Challenges
Besides its crucial role in biological science generally, climate change, biodiversity loss, and other looming environmental challenges make ecology's role in understanding such threats and identifying solutions to them all the more critical.
Philosophical and Ethical Dimensions
When ecology is applied and its insights marshalled to address these problems and guide policy formation, interesting philosophical issues emerge. Justus sets them out in detail, and explores the often ethically charged dimensions of applied ecological science, using accessible language and a wealth of scientifically-informed examples.
