<br/><br/> "In this book Ramachandra Guha, an acclaimed historian of the environment, draws on many<br/>years of research in three continents. He details the major trends, ideas, campaigns and<br/>thinkers within the environmental movement worldwide. Among the thinkers he profiles are<br/>John Muir, Mahatma Gandhi, Rachel Carson, and Octavia Hill; among the movements, the<br/>Chipko Andolan and the German Greens. Environmentalism: A Global History documents<br/>the flow of ideas across cultures, the ways in which the environmental movement in one<br/>country has been invigorated or transformed by infusions from outside. It interprets the<br/>different directions taken by different national traditions, and also explains why in certain<br/>contexts (such as the former Socialist Bloc) the green movement is marked only by<br/>its absence."<br/>
