Please join us for a book launch of Recovering Lost Species in the Modern Age: histories of longing and belonging with author Dolly Jorgensen.
About the book:
How can we understand attempts to bring species back when they have gone extinct? Author Dolly Jorgensen shows how environmental conservation depends on emotional attachment. We have a longing for recovering the which belonged.
Organized in conjunction with the Candian Museum of Nature and Carleton's History Department.
