Synopsis How Man Conquered Nature (Classic Reprint) by : Minnie Josephine Reynolds
Excerpt from How Man Conquered Nature When we say man in this story, we mean men and women the human race. Just as when we say the lion is a fierce beast, we mean the lioness as well as the lion. Some of the animal families with which man started the race have vanished from the earth. They have been killed off by man, or have died out from other reasons. A few others, like the horse, dog, cow and sheep, have changed very much, because man has taken charge of them, as we shall see later. But what we call the Wild animals remain practically the same now as when the story starts, many thousands Of years ago.

Synopsis Conquering Nature by : Sergio Diaz-Briquets
Conquering Nature provides the only book-length analysis of the environmental situation in Cuba after four decades of socialist rule, based on extensive examination of secondary sources, informed by the study of development and environmental trends in former socialist countries as well as in the developing world. It approaches the issue comprehensively and from interdisciplinary, comparative, and historical perspectives. Based on the Cuban example, Diaz-Briquets and Perez-L—pez challenge the concept that environmental disruption was not supposed to occur under socialism since it was alleged that guided by scientific policies, socialism could only beget environmentally benign economic development. In reality, the socialist environmental record proved to be far different from the utopian view. Between the early 1960s and the late 1980s the environmental situation worsened despite Cuba's achieving one of the lowest population growth rates in the world and having eliminated extreme living standard differentials in rural areas, two of the primary reasons often blamed for environmental deterioration in developing countries. The government's approach was to "conquer nature" and under its central planning approach, it did not take local circumstances into consideration. This disregard for the environmental consequences of development projects continues to this day despite official allegations to the contrary—as the country pursues an economic survival strategy based on the crash development of the tourist sector and exploitation of natural resources. An underlying conclusion of the book is that the environmental legacy of socialism will present serious challenges to future Cuban generations. Conquering Nature provides, for the first time, a relevant analysis of socialist environmental policies of a developing country. It will be of interest to students and scholars of Cuba and those interested in environmental issues in developing countries.
