"Nature's Restoration relates the passion of ordinary citizens who are changing the way we think about nature. Through the work of restoration, people are discovering a healthier way to interact with the land and helping to forge a new covenant with nature, one that neither advocates human dominance nor expects return to a lost innocence. On a planet suffering from serious ecological problems, Peter Friederici shows us that the restoration movement is a refreshing attempt to set things right."--Jacket
