Among the strengths of the book is Rolston's outstanding, in-depth treatment of organisms, species, natural systems, wilderness, and nature's intrinsic value. Equally outstanding is his encyclopedia, although at times selective, knowledge of the field of environmental ethics. The main shortcoming is Rolston's limited treatment of environmental justice.born digitalreviews (documents)eng©2013 American Institute of Biological Sciences.Copyright and other restrictions may apply.
