Description

A history replete with compromise and capitulation has pushed a once promising and effective political movement to the brink of irrelevance. "Losing Ground" unveils the inside stories behind American environmentalism's undeniable triumphs and its quite unnecessary failures. Mark Dowie, the award-winning journalist who broke the stories on the Dalkon Shield and on the Ford Pinto, delivers an informative account of the movement many historians and social commentators at one time expected to be the 20th century's most significant.

Author Biography:

Award-winning journalist Mark Dowie is the author of Losing Ground: American Environmentalism at the Close of the Twentieth Century, American Foundations: An Investigative History (both published by the MIT Press), and four other books.
