Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is a history of the environment of England, Wales and Scotland, and of the interactions of people, place and nature since the last ice sheet withdrew some ten thousand years ago. It is concerned with the changing cultures (in the full anthropological sense) of the peoples inhabiting Britain as well as with the environment they transformed, exploited, abused and cherished. As the author points out, every culture in Britain has had to acknowledge its placement on a set of islands 50 N where any month of the year can be the wettest month of the year, where there are some long shallow estuaries and a few deep inlets, and where cereals do not reliably ripen 300 metres above sea-level. Cultural imagination cannot alter these realities, but it can variously view them as dangerous or picturesque, as economic or uneconomic. The book is a history of changing reflexivity in the interactions between people, culture, and nature.The book is structured as a chronological narrative. It is written with unusual grace, wit and clarity, and illustrated with 50 photographs and some 60 maps and diagrams, all specially prepared for this book. The author draws on a very wide range of sources and uses scientific evidence as well as the conventional historical record, as well as on his own experience of the landscapes of Britain. This is cultural and natural history at its best, with a wide appeal within and without the academy. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. [9], 78 p.; 22 cm. (Zenos lectures ; 1966) Contents: Introduction, by Harry McClatchey --I A new perspective on the doctrine of the Spirit: models for activity -- II The model of economy -- III The model of presence -- IV The use of these models in Christian discourse -- V Pathways to theological atheism? -- Bibliography of the published works of Ian T. Ramsey -- Index -- From the introduction: `It had been hoped to transcribe the lectures from tape-recordings made at the time but, in the event, this did not prove possible. Mrs Shaw, Professor Ramsey's secretary in Oxford, was, however, able to produce a typescript from the original longhand notes. Parts of the lectures were used and reused in discussions with students and clergy, in the years following the move from the Nolloth Professorship at Oxford to the See of Durham. Bishop Ramsey went on hoping that the lectures would soon be published but, at the time of his death in October 1972, he had neither finished worrying at the wording nor revised the text to his satisfaction. The lectures are, therefore, published in a form which many may find tantalizing. It is, however, to be hoped that both the questions and the way in which they are handled here will provoke and stimulate further discussion, and it may be that even the unrevised obscurities contribute to this.'
