Seeing New Worlds: Henry David Thoreau and Nineteenth-Century Natural Science (Science & Literature)
“An excellent book, well-written, even eloquent. Walls is clearly the first scholar to read Thoreau thoroughly in the context both of the science of his own day and of the theory and philosophy of science in our day, in such a way as profoundly to call into question all previous work in this area and to open up questions about the very nature of science and scientific truth.”—Robert Sattelmeyer, Georgia State University
