‎DAGGET DAN‎

‎Gardeners Of Eden: Rediscovering Our Importance To Nature‎

‎University of Nevada Press Reno: 2005. Softcover. Brand new book. Dagget challenges our culture's assumption that humans are separate from nature and our current notion that the best way for us to protect the land is to leave it alone. He demonstrates case after case of positive human engagement in the environment: managed ecosystems and restored areas that are richer more diverse and healthier than unmanaged ones. Much of pre-Columbian America he contends was not a pristine wilderness but an ancient garden managed over millennia by native peoples who shaped the plant and animal communities around them to the mutual benefit of all. Dagget proposes a radical change in the way we define land health and the ways this health can be achieved. He recommends a new kind of environmentalism where we resume our ancient role as gardeners and stewards of our world reviving damaged land facilitating the return of native species restoring the land's ability to absorb and store water and carbon. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with the earth and anyone seeking a viable way for our burgeoning human population to continue to live upon it. Photography by Tom Bean. Distributed for Thatcher Charitable Trust/EcoResults. Dan Dagget has been an environmental activist and ecorestoration consultant for over thirty years fighting coal strip mines in Ohio and uranium mining near the Grand Canyon designating wilderness areas and working to resolve conflicts between western ranchers and environmentalists. He is the author of Beyond the Rangeland Conflict: Toward a West That Works and Gardeners of Eden: Rediscovering our Importance to Nature. He lives in Santa Barbara California. "Dan Dagget sees the world freshly in a way that may save it or at least save our capacity to participate creatively in its dynamics. This is the most important conservation manifesto since Aldo Leopold's Land Ethic." �Gary Paul Nabhan "With this book Dan Dagget does more than just think outside the environmental box. He has torn up the old box and built us a new and improved one." �Ed Marston "An important contribution to reframing Western issues past and present." - Journal of the West University of Nevada Press, Reno: 2005 paperback‎
