Picturing Ecology cover

This book examines the role of photography and visual culture in the emergence of ecological science between 1895 and 1939.

“This book will certainly inspire future works in that direction, since it brilliantly opens the doors for further studies that for example could analyze the visual and embodied basis of contemporary ecology, especially in the era of remote sensing, where huge volumes of data and their visualization in maps has contributed to our understanding, sense of action and agency in an epoch of pressing and existential ecological issues for life on earth.” (Camilo Castillo, TECNOSCIENZA, Vol. 14 (2), 2023)
