“Watras (education, Univ. of Dayton) argues the need for an alternative ethical framework for American democracy that offsets the ongoing process of environmental destruction these values engender. … Watras’s book is important reading for anyone interested in the problem of environmental destruction. Summing Up: Recommended. All readers.” (J. A. Fischel, Choice, Vol. 53 (10), June, 2016)
