Description: This book presents a broad array of global case studies exploring the interaction between religion and the conservation of nature from the viewpoints of the religious practitioners themselves. With conservation and religion often being championed as allies in the quest for a sustainable world where humans and nature flourish this book provides a much - needed compendium of detailed examples where religion and conservation science have been brought together. Case studies cover a variety of religions faiths and practices including traditional Indigenous Buddhism Christianity Hinduism Islam Jainism Judaism Shinto and Zoroastrianism. Importantly this volume gives voice to the religious practitioners and adherents themselves. Beyond an exercise in anthropology ethnobiology and comparative religion the book is an applied work seeking the answer to how in a world of nearly eight billion people we might help our own species to prevent the extinction of life. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of nature conservation environment and religion cultural geography and ethnobiology as well as practitioners and professionals working in conservation.
