Descriere completă

"Becoming an environmentalist is not akin to being struck by lightening."

The environmental education of Ken Ross grew out of life in rural Maine. It deepened in the wilds of northwest Alaska living a semi-subsistence lifestyle with wife Pam alongside Iñupiaq Eskimos for a year. Later he experienced natural and human encounters from back-country Labrador to villages of India and National Parks of Kenya. And finally, his education was broadened by the world of cities, politics, and academic study.

These life experiences contributed to forming the many pieces Professor Ross added over time to an environmental puzzle he wished to complete-an effective environmental philosophy. Its elements are detailed in the final chapters of his autobiography.

You, reader, are invited to accompany him on his path toward understanding, to sharing his quest, wry humor included.
