Abstract
'Written with clarity and sophistication, it is not just an original argument about relationships of nature and culture, but also a useful text' Keith Tester, Professor of Sociology, University of Portsmouth. This book asks the question: can 'man' be separated from 'nature'? and Is it valid to seek to 'control' nature? Using the Romantic idea of pure nature, it argues that the firm modern boundaries between nature and culture have been breached and pulls together new strands of thinking about nature which suggest that humanity and nature have never been separate.
