"It is all too common these days to answer worries about
environmental problems with the refrain that any solutions must
involve “education”. But rarely have we seen any
sustained reflection on the promotion of environmental
responsibility from the professional fields that have devoted
themselves to the serious consideration of educational theory or
philosophy. Michael Bonnet’s elegantly written and well
informed book steps into this breach and offers sound answers, and
perhaps more importantly, asks the difficult questions that we must
address to make any headway on this important issue. For too long
philosophers of education and environmental ethicists have pursued
their work independently of one another. Bonnett’s
contribution will help us to overcome this divide and hopefully
make good on the claim that education not only can, but must be
part of our search for environmental sustainability."
