Title: This is not a textbook.
Product review: As textbooks go, this is probably one of the worst I've ever encountered. The author distorts and over-simplifies theories which are in opposition to his own views, setting up what are otherwise complex and sophisticated moral theories as straw men that can be blown over with a few patronizing thought experiments. If you are looking for a book to reinforce environmentalist beliefs, then this is your book. However, if you seek to understand environmental ethical theory in a critical, thoughtful setting, you'd be better served by taking your money elsewhere. This book shouldn't be used as a textbook, and should probably be filed under the same propaganda heading as "An Inconvenient Truth".
