| 520 | |a ""Hogs are Up" is a collection of musings and memories by Wes Jackson, founder and president emeritus of The Land Institute, a science-based research organization working to develop an alternative to current destructive agricultural practices. In this volume, Jackson takes full advantage of his natural storytelling gifts, recollecting memories from his childhood Kansas farm, his graduate education and teaching career, and his work on and at "The Land." Pairing these tales of an exceptional life with his carefully-considered ideas on land use, sustainability, and humans' relationship to nature, these stories are meant to engage readers in mutual self-reflection"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
