Description
Ben Ware's On Extinction offers a profound and unsettling philosophical exploration of our apocalyptic future. By examining extinction as a lens through which to understand our current reality, Ware argues that radical politics should focus on beginning anew at the end rather than merely averting catastrophe. Drawing on the ideas of influential thinkers such as Kant, Hegel, Adorno, and Lacan, Ware presents a compelling vision for how we can approach our collective end by treating it as a starting point. This thought-provoking book combines lessons from philosophy with insights from popular culture and ecology to recast the most urgent issue of our times. Hardcover, 192 pages.
