New Book β A Cold Colonialism: Modern Exploration and the Canadian North
Framing exploration as an epistemic enterprise, or one concerned with the production of knowledge about environments, reveals it to be a more diverse and capacious activity than often believed.

I tackle these topics in my book EXTRACTION: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism
