DescriptionIt is hard to put this profound book into a category. Despite the authors criticisms of Thoreau, it is more like Walden than any other book I have read. . . . The book makes great strides toward bringing the best insights from medieval philosophy and from contemporary environmental ethics together. Anyone interested in both of these areas must read this book.--Daniel A. Dombrowski, The Thomist Those who share Koh ks concern to understand nature as other than a mere resource or matter in motion will find his temporally oriented interpretation of nature instructive. It is here in particular that Koh k turns moments of experience to account philosophically, turning what we habitually overlook or avoid into an opportunity and basis for self-knowledge. This is an impassioned attempt to see the vital order of nature and the moral order of our humanity as one.--EthicsAbout the AuthorErazim Kohák is professor of philosophy at Boston University. His many books include a study of Husserls phenomenology, Idea and Experience, also published by the University of Chicago Press.
