ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Many thanks to all the people who shared their ideas and experiences with me while I was researching this book. It would not have been completed without the support of numerous friends, but I would especially like to acknowledge Judith and Trish (with whom I’ve shared much including many happy times in ‘wild nature’); Kathy (who loves the Kowie River as much as I do) and Leslie; Alison (for showing me so much of the world and especially Rachel Carson’s home in Maine); David (a wonderful travel and teaching partner); Victor (tireless environmental activist) and Eddie (my model of a public sociologist and committed teacher).

My thanks also go to Estelle Jobson and Veronica Klipp at Wits University Press. In preparing this book for publication, I was fortunate to have the services of Alex Potter as editor, Fiona Lawson as proofreader, Margie Ramsay as indexer, and Karen Lilje of Hybridesign as cover and book designer. Lien Botha has kindly allowed us to use her artwork, ‘Besondere plante vir elke seisoen’ on the cover.

The publishers and I wish to thank all those institutions whose publications and archives have been cited and those individuals who have been interviewed. Acknowledgement has been cited accordingly at each instance.
