# 9780520208452 DOMINION by Niles Eldridge Agriculture relieved us from dependence on the local ecosystem; culture, not biology, allowed us to step outside the natural world, literally to have dominion over "the beasts of the field." However valid the premise, our escape from nature - our dominion over it - is an illusion. Although we, unlike all other species, are no longer rooted in local ecosystems, we have not escaped nature - the mega-ecosystem. Instead we have merely redefined our role within it. Our revised status in nature holds the key to understanding our evolutionary future. University of California Press. 13.6 x 20.7 cm, 1997. Retail: $18.95 My Price: $2.95

BARGAIN BOOK! This title is either a clearance item from my stock or remaindered by the publisher. It's a great value, though some copies may have some minor shelf wear or remainder marks (pen mark placed on ends of book at top or bottom by publisher). Quantity is limited to what I have in stock at these prices, so grab these before they go extinct!
