Praise from readers
"As I read The Ecology of Care, I had the feeling that Didi Pershouse & I had been singing from the same hymn book. Our early lives & educations were very different. She has spent time learning about & treating human maladies. I spent many years learning about & treating animals. It appears, however, that we have  reached, by different paths, the conclusion that health for humans, for animals, & for the environment is determined by the quality of the relationships between these entities.

Healthy humans require wholesome food which requires healthy plants & animals which require healthy soil & healthy water. Humans are a prideful bunch, certain that our technology can solve all problems when much of the time we don't recognize that the problems we attack are really only symptoms of underlying faults in our philosophy.

Pershouse points out clearly that our needs are not for stronger medicines, bigger machines, or more powerful poisons but for better understanding of the ecology (relationships) of our world and how we can be regenerative rather than destructive in our daily lives."

- WALT DAVIS, AUTHOR OF "HOW NOT TO GO BROKE RANCHING"

​— Tamara Nicklas
"Everyone needs to buy two copies...one for yourself...and one for your health care provider. This is a woman who is living it: not just talking the talk, but walking the walk. Buy the book, you won't be sorry. not only is the subject matter vitally important, but Didi is an excellent writer....really superb. From the first page you feel like she's talking just to you. It's an effortless read."

​— Timothy O'Dell
"Awesome book, a must read." 

​— Penny Sirjane
"A lot of other books that address these topics are pessimistic and at most just have policy recommendations. Pershouse goes so much further and describes not just how you could change the world, but how people currently are. It inspired me to start a local time bank... this is getting more real each day!” 

​— Adam Lake, M.D.
"One of the most important books I have read in memory." 

​— ​Perry Allison
"Covers a wide variety of subjects and pulls them altogether in an eye-opening, thought-producing manner that will keep you reading right to the last page. You will surely learn things, perhaps surprising things, that may give you hope for your personal health and surely will allow you to feel more optimistic about the future of our planet. Not only is it very informative, but it is written in a unique style that is a pleasure to read."
