AJ Update, August 2009

Ecology as the master science? You be the judge.

Thomas Homer-Dixon and Stephen Bocking battle it out in Alternatives’ ecology issue (only on newsstands for two more weeks). Then, coming this fall, Alternatives‘ sage, Robert Gibson, will join Homer-Dixon and Bocking on stage for the "ecollectual" discussion of the year.  Subscribe now and The New Ecology will be your first issue. Keep an eye on the website – time and location to hear Canada’s foremost environmental titans TBA.
