A rich collection of wilderness voices that previews the shape of
environmentalist discourse in the ongoing debate about how we will
treat the nonhuman world in the twenty-first century." —Rob Ensign

"A good book about a very old question: What is the relation
between human culture and wild nature? . . . Many of the arguments
. . . will provide readers with much to consider about their own
assumptions about wilderness and wildness. Read these essays, go
for long walks, and think deeply about what the presence of wild
nature in these times might mean." — Bloomsbury Review
"A challenging, provocative anthology containing several dozen
essays, by authors from Jonathan Edwards to Gary Snyder, that
grapple with the value and existence of wilderness." —Audubon
"This book has much to recommend it. . . . An extremely useful
catalogue of recent writings on the wilderness concept." —Paul
