"This collection explores the networks that shaped ecological change within and between
European and Middle Eastern empires during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries,
and is divided into three parts. The first focuses on the role of nation-building
in trans-imperial ecological transfers; the second focuses on approaches from the
history of science, looking at the global transfer, circulation, and diffusion of
ideas about the environment; and the third employs methods from animal studies, challenging
anthropocentric views of environmental history"
