Intensive agriculture is often bad for wildlife. Does this imply that a goal to boost wildlife on agricultural land is best met through a general reduction in intensity?

This implies that, even when farms are id

To be able to illustrate this conflict between different values did I do an ana

This thesis is a contribution to current research conducted from a so called neo-Whorfian perspective. That is, do linguistic differences yield differences in categorization preference (in a forced choice similarity task)? However, the debate over the pervasiveness of the linguistic effect upon categorization, together with the incoherent findings in prior studies suggest a theoretically open-mind
