John Seed, Joanna Macy, Pat Fleming, Arne Næss: Thinking Like a Mountain (2007, New Society Publishers) No rating

"I am that part of the rainforest recently emerged into thinking." A profound and accessible introduction to the concept of deep ecology, presented in a relatively secular manner. This book is incredibly sincere and will likely provoke discomfort for those who believe any display of mourning for the environment is performative or melodramatic. If you can look past the occasional hint of spiritualism (or embrace it entirely if that works for you) then it will provide an enlightening framework for environmental thought crucial for anyone with a genuine love for our planet.
