The Public Interest Involved in the Cornell Forestry Experiment (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781175792327)

"The Public Interest Involved in the Cornell Forestry Experiment" (1904) examines the intersection of public welfare and scientific forestry practices at Cornell University. Written by Edward Morse Shepard, this text provides insights into the early 20th-century debates surrounding resource management and the role of academic institutions in shaping environmental policy.

Shepard argues that the Cornell forestry experiment holds significant implications for the broader public, exploring the ways in which sustainable forestry can contribute to economic stability, environmental health, and social well-being. This work is valuable for historians, environmental scientists, and policy makers interested in the historical roots of modern conservation efforts and the evolving relationship between universities and public interests. It offers a crucial perspective on the challenges and opportunities inherent in balancing ecological preservation with societal needs.
