Recensioner i media

The book thus offers a corrective to certain outdated tendencies of ecocriticism and environmental activism, especially the idealisation of ‘pure’ nature … Green Media and Popular Culture is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the recent past or possible futures of ecocriticism and the environmental humanities.
