"For some years it has struck me as intriguing that there is no good recent history of nature – though in a sense hardly surprising since one could not imagine a more daunting subject for a historian to tackle.... I am delighted to say that Peter Coates′s text fills the bill particularly well: it is clear, cogent, comprehensive, and well organized.... This is a stunning book." Roy Porter, Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine
"I am very impressed with this book. It offers much more depth on most of the historical periods than any other book I′ve read.... and I couldn′t stop reading it." Michael Barbour, University of California,
"Peter Coates′s Nature is an engaging book, written in a lucid and accessible style and enlivened by the author′s wry humour." Professor Peter Burke, Emmanuel College, Cambridge
"Coates′ prose is lively and his critical perspactive engaging...students and general readers will find this an enjoyable and thought–provoking introduction to some of the key ideas and debates within environmental history." Andrea Gaynor, University of Western Australia
′Peter Coates′s book is a welcome, updated introduction to environmental history. Presuming no prior knowledge of the field on the part of his readers, Coates confirms the discipline′s "status as one of the most enthralling...pursuits within historical studies" (p.viii). Though faced with a monumental task of synthesis – even within a considerably narrowed scope – Coates succeeds admirably.′ Journal of the History of the Behavioural Sciences
