| 520 | |a In this book, the author examines the ways in which environmentalism can create social injustice through discourses of the body.

Ultimately, this book urges readers to be more critical of how they use nature as a tool of social control and to be careful about the ways in which they construct arguments to ensure its protection. | ||
