From taken-for-granted values and perceptions to embodied, existential modes of engaging our world, human perspectives impact decision-making and behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Wonder of Water\u003c\/i\u003e explores how human experience - including our cultural paradigms, value systems, and personal biases - impacts decisions around water. In many ways, the volume expands on the growing field of water ethics to include questions around environmental aesthetics, psychology, and ontology. And yet this book is not simply for philosophers. On the contrary, a specific aim is to explore how more informed philosophical dialogue will lead to more insightful public policies and practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCase studies describe specific architectural and planning decisions, fisheries policies, urban ecological restorations, and more. The overarching phenomenological perspective, however, means that these discussions emerge within a sensibility that recognizes the foundational significance of human embodiment, culture, language, worldviews, and, ultimately, moral attunement to place. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ingrid Leman Stefanovic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487505930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487505936\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/26\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2021","brand":"Ingrid Leman Stefanovic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065638465791,"sku":"9781487505936","price":97.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c8fdc8fc-bc2f-4736-9f15-f5be2c5201a5.jpg?v=1768676287","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-wonder-of-water-ingrid-leman-stefanovic-9781487505936","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
