Description
The ecological crisis is a pressing issue that affects many species facing extinction. However, it also poses a crisis in our relationships with other living beings. We have grown accustomed to viewing animals as part of 'nature', separate from the world of human beings pursuing their aims independently. Baptiste Morizot argues that this nature-human dualism is no longer tenable. Instead, he proposes that we rethink our connections with other living beings, recognizing that animals are cohabitants of the Earth, sharing a common ancestry and the enigma of being alive. By accepting our identity as living beings and reconnecting with our own animal nature, we can begin to change our relationships with other animals. This powerful plea for a new understanding of our relationships with other animals will be of great interest to anyone concerned about the ecological crisis and its impact on different species, including our own.
