Timothy Morton

Dark Ecology

For a Logic of Future Coexistence

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Timothy Morton explores the foundations of the ecological crisis to reestablish our ties to nonhuman beings and rediscover playfulness and joy. Dark ecology puts us in an uncanny position of radical self-knowledge, illuminating our place in the biosphere and our belonging to a species in a sense that is far less obvious than we like to think.

Morton commands readers' attention with his free-form style.... (Dark Ecology) extends his previous work to offer a seismically different vision of the future of ecology and humankind. Publishers Weekly
