In EcoMind, Frances Moore Lapp? confronts the accepted wisdom of environmentalism. Drawing on the latest research from anthropology to neuroscience and her own field experience, she argues that the biggest challenge to human survival isn't our dependence upon fossil fuels, melting glaciers, or other calamities. Rather its our faulty way of thinking about these environmental crises. Lapp? dismantles seven common "thought-traps" and offers instead contrasting "thought leaps" that reveal our hidden power. Like her Diet for a Small Planet classic, Ecomind is challenging, controversial and empowering.
