Scott Prudham investigates a region that has in recent years seen more environmental conflict than perhaps anywhere else in the country--the old-growth forests of the Pacific Northwest. Prudham employs a political economic approach to explain the social and economic conflicts arising from the timber industry's presence in the region. As well, he provides a thorough accounting of the timber industry itself, tracing its motivations, practices, and labor relations.Prudham, Scott is the author of 'Knock On Wood Nature as Commodity in Douglas-fir Country', published 2004 under ISBN 9780415944014 and ISBN 0415944015.
