ANIMATE EARTH - Science, Intuition and Gaia
by Stephan Harding
Harding has absorbed Lovelock’s Gaia theory and contemporary Living Systems Theory and has replaced the cold, objectifying language of science with a way of speaking of our planet as a sentient, living being. Balancing his material with a careful interweaving of scientific analysis and humanism, Harding has produced a masterful and intuitive account of Gaia as alive.
After reading this book, Earth, or Gaia can never be perceived as a dead inert machine. Animate Earth explores how Gaian science can help us to develop a sense of connectedness with the ‘more-than-human’ world, to develop a profound sense of the interconnectedness of life, and to discover what it means to live harmoniously as part of a sentient creature of planetary proportions. Harmonious conscious co-habitation with Gaia is the key. Animate Earth is a strongly recommended for the non-specialist general reader with an interest in science and metaphysics.
