In the spirit of the earth1992

"This meditation by an award-winning historian calls for a new way of looking at the natural world and our place in it, while boldly challenging the assumptions that underlie the way we teach and think about both history and time. Calvin Luther Martin's In the Spirit of the Earth is a provocative account of how the hunter-gatherer image of nature was lost--with devastating consequences for the environment and the human spirit.
