The Ecophobia Hypothesis

Beschreibung

The Ecophobia Hypothesis grows out of the sense that the capacity of "the biophilia hypothesis" as an explanatory model of human/environment relations is limited. This volume offers a rich tapestry of connected, comparative discussions about the new material turn and the urgent need to address the agency of genes.
