Extinction Studies : Stories of Time, Death, and Generations Paperback / softback
Edited by Deborah Bird (University of New South Wales) Rose, Thom van Dooren, Matthew (Curtin University) Chrulew
Paperback / softback
Description
Extinction Studies focuses on the entangled ecological and social dimensions of extinction, exploring the ways in which extinction catastrophically interrupts life-giving processes of time, death, and generations.
The volume opens up important philosophical questions about our place in, and obligations to, a more-than-human world.
Drawing on fieldwork, philosophy, literature, history, and a range of other perspectives, each of the chapters in this book tells a unique extinction story that explores what extinction is, what it means, why it matters-and to whom.
