Ramachandra Guha takes as his point of departure the dominant environmental philosophies in these two countries – identified as 'agrarianism' in India and 'wilderness thinking' in the United States. Proposing an inclusive 'social ecology' framework that goes beyond these partisan ideologies Guha arrives at a richer understanding of controversies over large dams, state forests, wildlife reserves and more. He offers trenchant critiques of privileged and isolationist proponents of conservation, persuasively arguing for biospheres that care as much for humans as for other species. He also provides profiles of three remarkable environmental thinkers and activists – Lewis Mumford, Chandi Prasad Bhatt and Madhav Gadgil. Finally, the author asks the fundamental environmental question – how much should a person or country consume? – and explores a range of answers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789350092590\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.1 x 5.2 x 1.0 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette India","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49114998079792,"sku":"Prakash_9789350092590","price":559.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/hachette-india-book-default-title-how-much-should-a-person-consume-paperback-ramachandra-guha-paperback-ramachandra-guha-38855096959280.jpg?v=1753014507","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/how-much-should-a-person-consume-paperback-ramachandra-guha-paperback-ramachandra-guha","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
