Synopsis

From the abuse of the Amazon rain forest to how Vermont has been marketed as the ideal rural place, this title looks at what the countryside is, and should be. It examines the underlying tendencies and subsequent policies that separate country from city, developed land from wilderness, and human activity from natural processes.
