Description
Indiana University Press Rape of the Wild Mans Violence against Animals and the Earth by Andree Collard, Joyce Contrucci
"One of the really significant books to have come out of the women's movement." -Mary Daly"Rape of the Wild is a bold work that stress[es] the absolute necessity of kinship with nature and all forms of life." -Animal's Agenda"This book is constructively "radical" in that it channels the energy of anger into a probing examination of the roots of patrist violence." -Changing Man" . . . a welcome addition to ecofeminist literature . . . " -Feminist for Animal Rights"Rape of the Wild is a very moving, passionately written expose of men's subjugation and exploitation of the natural environment and of women." -Forest History SocietyThis visionary and inspiring book is a cogent analysis of man's use and misuse of his environment and an impassioned plea for a feminist ecological revolution.
