Description
A Pelican Introduction: Being Ecological by Timothy Morton challenges our understanding of ecology and our place in the world. The author argues that our current understanding of the subject is flawed and that a new approach is needed to create a liveable future.
Morton, a cross-disciplinarian with a background in philosophy, sets out to show that we already have the capacity and will to change our understanding of the world. He offers an invigorated approach to ecology, one that is not bound by traditional notions of subjectivity and objectivity.
This book is not a traditional guide to ecology, but rather a thought-provoking exploration of the subject. Morton confronts the limitations of modern ecological thought and offers a new perspective on how we can create a more sustainable future.
