Inhaltsangabe

Dr. Stephan Harding, a long time collaborator of James Lovelock, replaces the cold, objectifying language of science with a way of speaking of our planet as a sentient, living being, not a dead, inert mechanism. Animate Earth argues that we need to establish a right relationship with the planet as a living entity in which we are embedded-- and to which, in the final analysis, we are all accountable. The book inspires the reader to connect with a profound sense of the value of the Earth, and to discover what it means to live as harmoniously as possible within a sentient creature of planetary proportions.
