Description
Book SynopsisIn this bold argument, Robert Booth asserts that the environmental crisis stems from our anthropocentric understanding of, and behavior in, the more-than-human world. Linking environmental phenomenology to ecofeminism, he shows why and how an ecophenomenological praxis may interrupt the environmental crisis at its source.
Trade Review“In
Becoming a Place of Unrest, Robert Booth builds on the insights of ecofeminists, new materialists, and (especially) phenomenologists to develop an original and highly compelling environmental philosophy. The book is not just an exemplary work of ecophenomenology; it is, more generally, an important contribution to environmental thought.” -- Simon P. James, author of Environmental Philosophy: An Introduction
