In this volume C. A. (Chet) Bowers whose pioneering work on education and environmental and sustainability issues is widely recognized and respected around the world brings together a carefully curated selection of his seminal work on the ideological cultural and linguistic roots of the ecological crisis; misconceptions underlying modern consciousness; the cultural commons; a critique of technology; and educational reforms to address these pressing concerns. In the World Library of Educationalists series international scholars themselves compile career-long collections of what they judge to be their finest pieces â extracts from books key articles salient research findings major theoretical and/practical contributions â so the world can read them in a single manageable volume. Readers will be able to follow the themes and strands of their work and see their contribution to the development of a field as well as the development of the field itself. Contributors to the series include: Michael Apple James A. Banks Joel Spring William F. Pinar Stephen J. Ball Elliot Eisner Howard Gardner John Gilbert Ivor F. Goodson and Peter Jarvis. .
