Description:
Ashgate Publishing, 2000. 1st Edition . Hardcover. As New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. In immaculate condition without dust jacket as published. Appears unread. It has become clear that the noble goals embodied in the US Endangered Species Act are colliding with financial and social realities. Citizens increasingly face the cost of policies (for example gnat catchers in Southern California and grizzly bears in Idaho and Montana). In general, policies which fail to respect liberty and property meet serious resistance. While there is widespread verbal support for saving species "at any cost", when trade-offs become obvious, the values compete, support for these policies evaporates. The editors of this book believe it is ethically and materially irresponsible to pretend this reality away. This book provides some insights from several disciplines, then offers modest constructive reforms that may increase the effectiveness and viability of endangered species protection.

Description:
Very rare privately published cord bound soft cover book containing two short stories by Balzac, An Episode During (Under) the Terror, and The Requisitioner. In very good clean condition throughout, with gift inscription assumed to be from the translator to ffep. Some foxing to edges of text block not affecting the pages.The publication of this book is in memory of Theodore Gosselin (Georges Lenotre) the French historian and writer who specialized in the history of the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror, who died in 1935. Research has uncovered nothing about the people responsible for the publication of this scarce title, but as Lenotre was known to them it may be that it was a small British based French History / Literature society, possibly linked to Oxford University.

Repaired tears to lower rear jacket edge. No inscription and otherwise clean. A collection of essays that discuss the contrasts and conflicts between town and country.

These essays extend from the conflict between hunter gatherers and farmers that remain buried in our psyche, to organic farming and the right to roam, to the need for our cities to be once more fit to die in, to the relationship between beauty and democracy, and the consequences of market pressure and government policy.
