Critical legal geography is practised by an increasing number of scholars in various disciplines, but it has not had the benefit of an overarching theoretical framework that might overcome its rather ad hoc character. This work presents a balanced convergence of contemporary socio-legal and critical geographic scholarship.

This interdisciplinary study explores the relationship between conceptions of nature and legal thought and practice. Topics include forces of nature, endangered species, animal experiments and bestiality, and Delaney demonstrates throughout that nearly any construal of 'nature' entails an interpretation of what it is to be (distinctively) human.
