My publications have touched on many themes and topics, from the history of conservation biology, the conservation and political implications of the rural-urban divide, and the existential challenges of climate change, to contemporary critiques of conservation, the evolution of land ethics, and ecological restoration in times of rapid environmental change. If you are looking for a specific piece, or something on a particular theme, please feel free to contact me!
