Requests:  0 Summary:  Explores the concept of land ownership and how it has shaped history, examining how people fight over, steward, and occasionally share land, and what humanity's proprietary relationship with land means for the future. "Land examines in depth how we determine where the land lies, how we acquire it, how we steward it, how and why we fight over it, and, finally, how we can, and on occasion do, come to share it. Ultimately, Winchester confronts the essential questions: who actually owns the world's land, how much of it do we really need, and why does it matter?" -- Inside front jacket flap.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Winchester Checked In Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Transit Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahala P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
