Om denne bog

A comprehensive look at how John Dewey''s ethics can inform environmental issues.

Hugh P. McDonald''s John Dewey and Environmental Philosophy breaks new ground by applying Dewey''s insights to a new approach to philosophy of the environment; the concern for the rights of animals; the preservation of rare species, habitats, and landscapes; and the health of the whole ecology. The book summarizes much of the current literature on environmental ethics, concentrating on the writings of major figures in the movement: Tom Regan, J. Baird Callicott, Holmes Rolston, and Bryan Norton. The heart of the book consists of a detailed analysis of Dewey''s ethics, his theory of intrinsic value, and his holistic approach to moral justification. Arguing against the idea that Dewey''s philosophy is anthropocentric, McDonald makes a strong case that using Dewey''s philosophy will result in a superior framework for environmental ethics.
