“A courageous and carefully crafted defence of the concept of ecological justice which places it at the centre of a viable environmentalist agenda.”

Alan Holland, Lancaster University

“Wienhues’ radical argument that wild living organisms of all species are owed distributive ecological justice makes a provocative, valuable and original contribution to current environmental debates.”

Clare Palmer, Texas A&M University

“An impressive, very carefully developed argument for an innovative theory of ecological justice, giving it its due place in the Anthropocene – and a very pleasant read.”

Marcel Wissenburg, Radboud University Nijmegen
