In Aldo Leopold and an Ecological Conscience
ecologists, wildlife biologists, and other professional
conservationists explore the ecological legacy of Aldo
Leopold and his A Sand County Almanac and his
contributions to the environmental movement, the philosophy
of science, and natural resource management. Twelve personal
essays describe the enormous impact he has had on each
author, from influencing the daily operations of the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service and the creation of a land-use
ethics guide for Forest Service personnel, to much needed
inspiration for continuing on in today's large, complex and
often problematic world of science. Here is Aldo Leopold as
a mentor, friend, and companion and an affirmation of his
hope that science will continue to be practiced in the cause
of conservation.
