An ongoing inquiry into change and stability in nature, politics and ourselves, by Ben Shaine

Ben Shaine teaches with college environmental field programs at the Wrangell Mountains Center in McCarthy, Alaska, and as resource faculty at The Evergreen State College. He engages in public policy advocacy with organizations in Alaska and elsewhere, has served as a lobbyist at the national, state and local levels, consulted internationally on issues of urban development and sprawl, and taught at The University of California at Santa Cruz and the Arava Institute, Israel. His years living in the Wrangell Mountains are the basis for his novel, Alaska Dragon, which explores themes of contemplation and action in the context of the American wilderness.
