The Unsettling of America: Culture and Agriculture
By Wendell Berry

Title available in paperback?: Yes
Pages: 246


Really provocative analyses of the waves of abuse rural America has suffered, but so much more than that -- as penetrating an analysis of our cultural values as I know, and there's something in it for classes in so many disciplines to talk about, from environmental science to business to ethics to American history and literature.

--title nominated by Matthew Shockey, Assistant Professor of Philosophy
