Description

"Reading Being Ecological is like getting caught in a brilliant display of intellectual fireworks" P.D. Smith, Guardian

Why is everything we think we know about ecology wrong? Is there really a difference between "humans" and "nature"? Does this mean we have a future?

Whether you are interested in ecology or not, this book is for you. Timothy Morton, who has been described as "our most popular guide to the new era" (Guardian), attempts to show us that, whether we know it or not, we already have the ability and the will to change our perception of the place of humans in the world and the very concept of "ecology."

As an interdisciplinary thinker, Morton has collaborated with personalities such as Björk and Hans Ulrich Obrist and is a member of the movement of object-oriented philosophy, a group of progressive thinkers examining contemporary concepts of subjectivity and objectivity, while offering new and fascinating understandings of Heidegger and Kant.

Referring to his work as a book that contains no "ecological facts," Morton addresses the fatigue from the informational flow of the digital age and offers a refreshed approach to creating a sustainable future.
