Anotace:	Why should the work of the ancient and the mediaevals, so far as it relates to nature, still be an interest and an inspiration to us now? The contributions to this enlightening volume explore and uncover contemporary scholars' debt to the classical and mediaeval past. "Thinking About the Environment" synthesizes religious thought and environmental theory to trace a trajectory from Mesopotamian mythology and classical and Hellenistic Greek, through classical Latin writers, to mediaeval Christian views on man's inseparability from nature. The volume concludes with a study of the breakdown between science and value in contemporary ecological thought. "Thinking About the Environment" is a valuable source book for those seeking to address environmental ethics from an historical perspective.
