Philosopher Kathleen
Dean Moore’s latest book is like a basket of seashells and
pinecones: Each essay is a precise, self-contained bit of truth.
Her central theme, that the well-being of humans cannot be
separated from that of the rest of the planet, is familiar to many
of us. By grounding her ideas in the tangible details of island and
rivers, however, she also leaves us with a tang of salt air and
something fresh to ponder.
