Description
Pandora's Garden explores the complex relationships between humans and unwanted species in the natural world. By examining invasive plants and animals, Clinton Crockett Peters reveals surprising parallels with our treatment of each other. Through a range of subjects, from snakes to sharks, Peters interweaves personal narratives with essays on ecology and human perception. This unique blend creates a microcosm of the world, where nonhuman lives are sustained but also contained. The result is a thought-provoking exploration of how we interact with the natural world, and ourselves.
