Abstract
The Introduction is an overarching look at ecological theories, environmental policies, and current cease-and-desist orders (read: protected areas), and the continuing domains of human assault across the planet, beginning with that exile and oppression of the Troubadours in the late Middle Ages, a forerunner of the myriad themes to be explored throughout the book.
