Offers a new history of ecology that traces the science back to narrative storytelling. Weaving together the histories of ecology, economics, and the realist novel, The Ecological Plot shows how pioneering thinkers in each field relied on a shared set of literary techniques that enabled them to see how different species could work together as a single, interdependent community. Writers and thinkers considered include Thomas Malthus, Harriet Martineau, Charles Darwin, Elizabeth Gaskell, George Eliot, Thomas Hardy, Aldo Leopold, and Rachel Carson--
