On August 19, historian and journalist Mark Dowie joins us to discuss his book "Conservation Refugees: The Hundred-Year Conflict Between Global Conservation and Native Peoples". The book, which Michael Pollan calls "one of the most important contributions to conservation in many years", examines assumptions about wilderness that have existed since the beginning of the conservation movement and offers a new vision for wilderness protection that respects humankind's place in nature.
