  • Green Production: Toward an Environmental Rationality - 168 pp by Enrique Leff.

"You can disagree with some (or many) of theses of Enrique Leff's book. What cannot be denied is that Green Production is one of the most serious contributions to the contemporary debate on political ecology worldwide."-- Victor Toledo

  • Minding Nature : The Philosophers of Ecology - 282 pp. Edited by David Macauley.

"It is good to have these great philosophers cast, as they so rarely are, in a clear ecological light. It helps not only to understand their work in a fresh new way but to realize how, in a sense, all important philosophy in this age can best be seen as a branch of the study of nature itself." -- Kirkpatrick Sale

  • Good Liberals and Great Blue Herons: Land, Labor and Politics in the Pajaro Valley - 137 pp by Frank Bardacke.

"Frank learned about how Watsonville works and how the farm land works and how the two evolve, according to the motions of the world economy. This is no book of closed horizons. At the other end of Main Street is Michoacan, whence so many of the workers came; is Irapuato whither so many of the jobs finally went; is London where some of the momentous recent decisions in the history of Watsonville were made. Frank learned these things and he explains them to us." -- Alexander Cockburn

ISBN N-9641094-0-9 (softcover) - $12.95 (U.S.) $14.80 (foreign)
