詹姆斯·卡里尔（James Carrier）编辑的关于当地对环境问题的理解的书是对草根阶层对当地环境的看法和理解的新兴文献的及时贡献，最好将其描述为“环境人类学”。该书将自身定位在人类学方法和当地环境感知的地理表征之间，重点关注从当地到全球的一系列地点和人们周围环境的各个方面。因此，这些贡献使用来自不同地点（例如加勒比海、欧洲国家、巴基斯坦、日本）的例子，既是为了理清“环境”对于经常因稀缺资源（例如森林、鱼类）而直接对抗的各个利益相关群体的含义，也是为了分析当地事件（例如旅游业、环境保护）对人类环境解释和理解的影响。本书由九章（包括序言和结论）组成，每一章都讨论利益相关群体如何理解和解释他们的环境。詹姆斯·卡里尔（James Carrier）的介绍性序言对“环境”概念对不同人意味着什么进行了富有挑战性的分析，并强调了该术语通常抽象的本质以及固有的“部落理解”
James Carrier’s edited volume on local understandings of environmental issues is a timely contribution to the burgeoning literature on grassroots-level perceptions and understandings of local environments, and can be best described as an ‘anthropology of the environment’. The book positions itself between anthropological approaches and geographical representation of local perceptions of the environment, and focuses on a range of places and aspects of people’s surroundings from the local to the global. Thus, the contributions use examples from various locations (eg the Caribbean, European countries, Pakistan, Japan) both to disentangle the meaning of ‘environment’for various stakeholder groups who are often in direct confrontation with each other over scarce resources (eg forests, fish) and to analyse the impacts of local events (eg tourism, environmental protection) on human-environment interpretations and understandings.The book comprises nine chapters (including preface and conclusions) that each discuss how stakeholder groups understand and interpret their environments. James Carrier’s introductory preface provides a challenging analysis of what the notion of ‘environment’means to different people, and highlights the often abstract nature of the term, the inherent ‘tribal understanding’
