“…Africa became a sacrifice zone, where environmental
ideologies demand that only politically correct tools like bednets

New York City’s new lead poisoning rules peg landlords
as guilty unless proven innocent. The City’s new
awning rules were put on hold because ninety percent of awnings

“Misconceptions
Make this Book Beastly” - Book Review by
Nathaniel R. Dickinson
The Beast in the Garden, David Baron, W. W. Norton and
Company, 2004
|
- Killings of human beings by cougars in areas near built-up
suburbs have led Baron to advocate for action by public agencies
and private groups to preserve more open space, rather than identify
problems and needs. In addition to accounts of encounters with
cougars, Baron’s writing includes a hodgepodge ranging
from a study of deep-seated fear of cats to discourses on multiculturalism,
feminism, environmentalism and Native Americanism. The strict
preservationist stance displays a lack of appreciation of the
natural world.
