Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near fine. First edition. Signed by Wilson on the title page. Uncommon or scarce signed. A collection of essays that is one of his most influential and personal books (and a Rural Hours favorite), introducing his important theory of "biophilia," or our innate attraction to and fascination with the living world and our impulse to study it. Also includes his important essay "The Conservation Ethic" in which he's in conversation with Aldo Leopold, Peter Singer, Garrett Hardin, and others. An appropriate blurb by Paul Ehrlich on the rear of the dust jacket: "This is the best thing I've ever read on the need for developing a deep environmental ethic if our civilization is to persist." Very good on account of some light, sporadic foxing to cloth and light foxing to upper and outer page block faces. In a near fine jacket with a little crinkling to spine crown and mild sunning to spine. An essential book in an natural history or environmental book collection.
