Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Bookchin wrote \u003cem\u003eOur Synthetic Environment\u003c\/em\u003e under the pseudonym Lewis Herber. This was one of the first books of the modern period in which an author espoused an ecological and environmentalist worldview. It predates \u003cem\u003eSilent Spring\u003c\/em\u003e (1962) by Rachel Carson, a more widely known book on the same topic widely credited as starting the environmental movement. \"At the time of its publication, \u003cem\u003eOur Synthetic Environment\u003c\/em\u003e was the most comprehensive and enlightened book on the environmental crisis. Many other books on this topic have been published since, but none, I believe, as comprehensive.\" --Ren  Dubos\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Martino Fine Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50362553696530,"sku":"9781684222339","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_ce93f848-62bc-4fe9-9b78-07b766f4052d.jpg?v=1728386938","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/our-synthetic-environment-9781684222339","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
