Description:

"Farrell presents an original and compelling view of what constitutes the relevant aspects of a moral framework for understanding environmental conflicts. The scholarship is impressive."--Robert Wuthnow, author of Rough Country: How Texas Became America's Most Powerful Bible-Belt State

"Building his case on one of the most iconic national parks in the world, Farrell shows very convincingly that if we do not take into account the quasi-religious dimension of environmental conflicts, we will not be able to understand persistent clashes over land, resources, and environmental uses."--Louis Guay, Laval University, Canada
