Summary |
"Settling Nature documents the widespread ecological warfare practiced by the state of Israel-leveraging nonhuman soldiers that are all the more effective because nature camouflages their tactical deployment as such. Drawing on interviews with Israel's nature officials and on observations of their work, Braverman examines the careful orchestration of this animated warfare by Israel's nature administration on both sides of the Green Line"-- Provided by publisher |
